Solution
The correct option is B 16 bit
16 bit can accommodate
instruction register.
A 16-bit integer can store 2^16 distinct
values. In an unsigned representation, these values are the integers between 0
and 65,535; using two's complement, possible values range from −32,768 to
32,767. Hence, a processor with 16-bit memory addresses can directly access
64 KB of byte-addressable memory.
An instruction register (IR)
is the part of a CPU's control unit that holds the instruction currently
being executed or decoded. Each instruction
register cell comprises a
shift-register flip-flop and a parallel output latch. The shift registers hold the
instruction bits moving through the instruction
register.
