Question on: SS2 ICT - Computer Data Conversion

The Memory Buffer Register (MBR) serves as a temporary storage unit during memory operations. When data is being transferred between the CPU and main memory, it's first placed in the MBR. This allows for smoother communication between the relatively fast CPU and the comparatively slower main memory. The MBR acts as a buffer, holding the data until the CPU is ready to process it or until the data is transferred to or from the main memory. This buffering helps bridge the speed difference and ensures efficient data transfer.
