Question on: SS2 ICT - Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The Control Unit acts as the coordinator of the CPU's activities. It interacts closely with other components like the Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU), registers, and memory. The Control Unit fetches instructions from memory and decodes them to determine what operation to perform. It then sends control signals to the ALU to perform calculations and to other parts of the CPU to move data between registers, memory, and other components. In essence, the Control Unit ensures that all components work harmoniously to execute the instructions correctly.
