Topic: Microprocessors
Pipelining technique is used in microprocessor to improve which of the following parameter?
- A. Power dissipation
- B. Interrupt latency
- C. Die size
- D. Maximum clock frequency
Answer: D. Maximum clock frequency
Explanation: Pipelining approach divides an entire process into small and roughly equal time consumable sub-processes, allowing overall throughput to increase significantly as the clock is applied simultaneously to all blocks, thereby increasing maximum clock frequency.
