Question:

Assume that the register file in Figure 7.8 is implemented as a RAM. At any given time, a location in this RAM can be accessed for either a read or a write operation. During the operation R1 [R1] + [R2], register R1 is both a source and a destination. Explain how you would use additional latches at either the input or the output of the RAM to operate the file in a master-slave mode. Use a timing diagram to explain how your new design enables register R1 to be used as both a source and a destination in the same clock cycle.
