For the RAM component in assignment 3 the clock that
drives the CPU also must drive the RAM. However, I am
uncertain as to the purpose of this. If on every
rising clock edge data is read or writtin to the RAM
(depending on the read/write signal) then how do we
instruct the RAM to sit idle when needed? i.e not to
read or write from memory, regardless of the
read/write signal.
