Question

To fetch data from secondary memory which one of the following register is used 
🎥 Video solution / Text Solution of this question is given below:

✅ Concept:

To fetch data from secondary memory, certain registers are used to handle the addresses and manage the data flow between secondary memory and the CPU.

✅ Explanation of Options:

  • Program Counter (PC): The Program Counter holds the address of the next instruction to execute, not used for fetching data from secondary memory.
  • Memory Address Register (MAR): This is the correct answer! The MAR holds the address in memory from which data will be fetched or written, including from secondary storage. It is responsible for managing the memory access.
  • Memory Buffer Register (MBR): The MBR temporarily holds data being transferred to or from memory but does not directly fetch data from secondary memory.
  • Accumulator: The Accumulator holds intermediate results of arithmetic or logical operations, not used for fetching data from secondary memory.

✅ Final Answer:

The register used to fetch data from secondary memory is the Memory Address Register (MAR).
