The CLC ISA ( a pretend ISA) is under development and in a state of flux. The CLC ISA uses a 40 bit RISC instruction word. The opcode portion will be either 6 or 7 bits, and the remaning bits will be for the operand. What would be the maximun number of instructions available in the CLC ISA 6 bit? What would be the Maximun number of instructions available in the CLC ISA 7 bit? One of the instructions will be an ADD IMMEDIATE where the operand will be an unsigned integer? What will be the latest integer value with a 6 bit operand? What will be the largest interger value with a 7 bit opcode?

What will be the largest interger value with a 7 bit opcode?
Maximum number of instructions possible with n bits is given by
2n
Hence maximum number of instructions available in CLC ISA 6 bit is 26 = 64
Maximum number of instructions available in CLC ISA 7 bit is 27 = 128
