The arithmetic-logic unit (ALU) performs allarithmetic operations (addition, subtraction,multiplication, and division) and logic operations.Logic operations test various conditions encounteredduring processing and allow for different actions to betaken based on the results. The data required to performthe arithmetic and logical functions are inputs from thedesignated CPU registers and operands

How does the ALU know which function to perform?

The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) determines which function to perform based on control signals provided by the control unit of the CPU. These control signals are generated based on the instruction being executed, specifying the desired operation, such as addition, subtraction, or logical operations. The ALU uses these signals to select the appropriate circuitry and logic pathways to carry out the specified function on the input data.
