The CPU has a large register file. An alternative to a large register file is an on-chip cache memory. These days manufacturers have put the cache on the processor chip to accommodate higher speed. The control unit is hardwired. That is, RISC architectures are not microprogrammed. The code generated by the compiler is directly executed by the hardware; it is not interpreted by microprogramming. Ref: http://www2.cs.siu.edu/~cs401/Textbook/ch4.pdf see page 4 So according to this all options are correct. 3 votes 3 votes Sanandan commented Sep 16, 2020 reply Follow Share All the options are properties of RISC 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
