BIT-LEVEL PARALLELISM - A CASE STUDY ON 16-BIT MICROPROCESSOR Nur Athirah binti Khalib #1, Mohamed Faidz Mohamed Said #2 # Faculty of Computer & Mathematical Sciences, Universiti Teknologi MARA 70300 Seremban, Negeri Sembilan, MALAYSIA 1 nurathirahkhalib@gmail.com 2 faidzms@ieee.org Abstract—Bit level parallelism is how computer uses parallel form to increase the processing work size. There are many designs that can be used to implement the 16-bit microprocessor in real life application. The design will be used in single machine cycle that can increase speed of the process. Microprocessor is a register based electronic device that can be programmed and it accepts binary data as input, progresses on the data that are based on the binary instructions and provides the result as output. It can integrate enormous processing power even in a compressed space. Microcontrollers are significant in this digital world where everyone wants to finish the intended task in a minimum time.
