    Time : 3 Hours Maximum Marks : 100

    Note : Question No. 1 is compulsory and carries


    40 marks. Attempt any three questions from
    the rest.

    1. (a) Convert the following pairs of decimal


    numbers to 8-bit, signed, 2’s complement
    numbers and add them. State, whether or
    not overflow occurs in each case : 6
    (i) 58 and 100

    P. T. O.
    [2] MCS-012

    (ii) –71 and 13


    (iii) –100 and –28
    (b) What is the difference between
    combinational logic and sequential logic ? 2
    (c) Design a combinational circuit using K-
    map, whose output is zero if the 4-bit input
    binary number is a multiple of 3, otherwise
    the output is one. 6
    (d) What is the use of addressing modes ?
    Explain the base register addressing and
    relative addressing schemes with the help
    of one example of each. 6
    (e) Explain the layout of a magnetic disk with
    the help of a diagram. Also, explain access
    time on a magnetic disk. 6
    (f) Explain the concept of programmed
    input/output with help of a flowchart. 4
    (g) Explain the Wilkes control unit with the
    help of a diagram. 5
    (h) Write a program using 8086 assembly
    language that converts an ASCII digit
    stored in a memory location to equivalent
    binary value. This binary value should be
    stored in AL register. 5

    2. (a) Explain the role of any five registers used


    in a basic computer. 5
    (b) Draw and explain the half adder circuit. 5

    different kinds of instructions interpreted ?
    6
    (b) Explain the role of flag registers in
    assembly language programming with the
    help of an example. 4

    needed ? Explain the direct mapping cache
    organisation with the help of a diagram. 6
    (d) What are the differences between .COM
    and .EXE programs ? 4

    4. (a) Explain the term micro-operation. How is a


    micro-operation different from an
    instruction ? Write the sequence of micro-
    operations required to fetch an instruction
    from the memory to CPU register. You
    may assume suitable set of registers. 8

    following register values/offset in a 8086
    microprocessor : 6
    (i) CS = 2351 h and IP = 1256 h

    IEEE-754 floating point single precision
    number format : 4
    (i) 1010.0001
    (ii) –0.0000111
