Control logic is the part of a software architecture that controls what the program will do. This part of the program is also called the controller. Before the instruction reaches the control logic it is translated into binary through an instruction decoder or "decode unit".
A major input to the control logic is a clock signal which controls all the microprocessor's timing.
