Explain bus interface unit, Computer Engineering

Q. Explain Bus Interface Unit?

BIU (Bus Interface Unit) mainly interacts with system bus. It executes nearly all the activities relating to fetch cycle like:

Computing the physical address of the next instruction
Fetching instruction
Writing or Reading data I/O or memory port from I/O ormemory.
