microprocessor - Map processor to circuit diagram


I am a software developer (using high level languages like .NET,C,C++ etc) trying to understand how computers work at a lower level.


I am familar with this diagram:



I am trying to gain a high level insight into how the diagram in the link maps to a circuit diagram like this:


For example, have a look at the assembly language statement:


ADD 1,2


I am trying to understand how the processor produces '3' as the output. I realise that this question may be difficult to answer in simple terms. If it is, then a link would help, perhaps to a book.



Answer



I found my answer here. It is a high level overview of the process of adding numbers.
