Question

In ARM, the total number of CPSR, PC, SPSR and R12 registers that are available is as follows:

Select one:

  • a. 5,5,1,1
  • b. 2,2,5,2
  • c. 1,5,1,2
  • d. 1,1,5,2

Solution

To address this question about the ARM architecture and the registers mentioned, let's analyze the components involved.

Relevant Registers in ARM:

  1. CPSR (Current Program Status Register): There is only 1 CPSR.
  2. PC (Program Counter): There is 1 PC.
  3. SPSR (Saved Program Status Register): There is only 1 SPSR for certain modes.
  4. R12 (Register 12): This is one of the general-purpose registers, and in ARM architecture, there are typically 1 separate instance when considering user modes.

Count of Registers:

  • CPSR: 1
  • PC: 1
  • SPSR: 1
  • R12: 1

Total Counts:

  • CPSR: 1
  • PC: 1
  • SPSR: 1
  • R12: 1

Thus, when we look at the possible answer choices, only one option aligns with the counts of these registers:

Final Answer

The correct answer is d. 1,1,1,1 (not listed in the options but confirms all are indeed 1).

However, since there appears to be a mismatch in provided options, the closest terminology aligns more with option d:

d. 1,1,5,2 - based on general structure, but the actual counts indicate fewer or specific instances for each case.

You should double-check these options against the context of specific ARM architecture configurations, as they might represent different sets or interpretations.
