lina2011 [118]

Answer:

a.  2^6, or 64 opcodes.

b.  2^5, or 32 registers.

c. 2^16, or 0 to 65536.

d.  -32768 to 32768.

Explanation:

a. Following that the opcode is 6 bits, it is generally known that the maximum number of opcodes should be 2^6, or 64 opcodes.

b. Now, since the size of the register field is 5 bits, we know that 2^5 registers can be accessed, or 32 registers.

c. Unsigned immediate operand applies to the plus/minus sign of the number. Since unsigned numbers are always positive, the range is from 0 to 2^16, or 0 to 65536.

d. Considering that the signed operands can be negative, they need a 16'th bit for the sign and 15 bits for the number. This means there are 2 * (2^15) numbers, or 2^16. However, the numbers range from -32768 to 32768.
