CORRECT ANSWERS/ CEA FNP TEST 2025 /(100% CORRECT
VERIFIED ANSWERS)
for a given FINITE number of instructions to be executed, which architecture of the processor
provides for a faster execution?
o A. ISA
o B. ANSA
o C. Super-scalar
o D. All of the mentioned - ANSWER-C. Super-scalar
Explanation: In superscalar architecture, the instructions are set in groups and they're decoded and
executed together reducing the amount of time required to process them.
An optimizing Compiler does _________
o A. Better compilation of the given piece of code
o B. Takes advantage of the type of processor and reduces its process time
o C. Does better memory management
o D. None of the mentioned - ANSWER-b. Takes advantage of the type of processor and reduces its
process time
Explanation: An optimizing compiler is a compiler designed for the specific purpose of increasing the
operation speed of the processor by reducing the time taken to compile the program instructions.
When Performing a looping operation, the instruction gets stored in the ______
o A. Registers
o B. Cache
o C. System Heap
o D. System stack - ANSWER-B. Cache
Explanation: When a looping or branching operation is carried out the offset value is stored in the
cache along with the data.
he average number of steps taken to execute the set of instructions can be
made to be less than one by following _______
, o A. ISA
o B. Pipe-lining
o C. Super-scaling
o D. Sequential - ANSWER-C. Super-scaling
the number of steps required to execute a given set of instructions is sufficiently reduced by using
super-scaling. In this method, a set of instructions are grouped together and are processed.
Which method/s of representation of numbers occupies a large amount of
memory than others?
o A. Sign-magnitude
o B. 1's complement
o C. 2's complement
o D. 1's & 2'scompliment - ANSWER-A. Sign-magnitude
What is the maximum addressable memory of a 32-bit microprocessor with 24-
bit address?
o A. 16 MB
o B. 16 Mbits
o C. 16 GB
o D. 16 Gbits - ANSWER-A. 16 MB
A complete microcomputer system consist of _____
o A. Microprocessor
o B. Memory
o C. Peripheral equipment
o D. All of the other - ANSWER-D
microcomputer system is a microprocessor-based computer, consisting of an MPU, internal
semiconductor memory, input and out and output sections, and a system bus, all on one.it can also
consist of several monolithic IC chips inserted into one or several PC boards
CPU fetches the instruction pointed by____
