I am trying to reproduce this picture using tikz:

My mwe is (Only the CPU box):

documentclass[10pt,xcolor=dvipsnames,xcolor=table]{beamer}

usepackage{amsmath, tikz}

usetikzlibrary{positioning,arrows}

usetikzlibrary{decorations.pathmorphing}

usetikzlibrary{decorations.markings}

usetikzlibrary{shadows.blur, shapes.arrows}

synctex=1

% usepackage{listings}%, fancyvrb}

usepackage[T1]{fontenc}



begin{document}

tikzstyle{sblock} = [rectangle, draw, %fill=Apricot!70, 

text width=5em, text centered, rounded corners, minimum height=0em, node distance=3.5cm]

tikzstyle{block} = [rectangle, draw, fill=Apricot!70, 

text width=10em, text centered, rounded corners, minimum height=0em]

tikzstyle{line} = [draw, -latex']

tikzstyle{cloud} = [draw, ellipse,fill=red!20, node distance=3cm,

minimum height=2em]



begin{frame}[fragile]

    begin{tikzpicture}[scale=.85]

      node[block, text width=1cm, rounded corners= 0ex, draw= none]at (-1.3,0) (cpu1)

      {PC};

      node[block, text width=3cm, rounded corners= 0ex, draw= none] at (0,

      -2)(cpu2){BUS Interface};

      node[block, text width=1cm, rounded corners= 0ex, draw = none, text

      height=1.5cm]at (.3,0) (cpu3) {Register file}; 

      node[block, text width=1cm, rounded corners= 0ex, draw= none,

      text height=2cm] at (3, 0) (cpu3){ALU};



      node[double arrow, fill=Black, rotate=90] at

      (0,-2){phantom{aa}};

      node[single arrow, fill=Black] at

      (1.5,-.2){phantom{aa}};

      node[single arrow, fill=Black, rotate=180] at

      (1.5,.72){phantom{aaa}};

    end{tikzpicture}

end{frame}

end{document}

The problem is I am placing the arrows as node, and that is not working. The output of the mwe is:

How can I place the arrows in proper way? e.g. can I use the arrow as path?

Kindly help.

You can use arrows as paths.

MWE

documentclass[10pt,xcolor=dvipsnames,xcolor=table]{beamer}

usepackage{tikz}

usetikzlibrary{positioning,arrows,arrows.meta}

begin{document}

tikzset{block/.style={rectangle, draw, fill=Apricot!70,

text width=10em, text centered, rounded corners=0pt, minimum height=0em}}

tikzset{arw/.style={>={Triangle[length=3mm,width=5mm]},line width=2mm,draw=gray}}

begin{frame}[fragile]

        begin{tikzpicture}[scale=.85]

        node[block, text width=1cm, draw= none]at (-1.3,0) (cpu1){PC};

        node[block, text width=1cm, minimum height=2cm, draw = none, right=0.5cm of cpu1] (cpu3) {Register file};

        node[block, text width=3cm, draw= none, below=0.7cm of cpu3] (cpu2){BUS Interface};

        node[block, text width=1cm, minimum height=2cm, draw= none,right=1cm of cpu3]  (cpu4){ALU};

        draw[arw,<->] (cpu3.south|-cpu2.north) -- (cpu3);

        draw[arw,->] (cpu3.340) -- (cpu4.200);

        draw[arw,<-] (cpu3.20) -- (cpu4.160);

        end{tikzpicture}

To use the nodes and their shape as if they were figures drawn on the path, you can use the relative placement of the nodes relative to each other. To do this, simply use the syntax of the positioning library you have already loaded.

Thus, instead of anchoring each node to a specific coordinate point, it is sufficient to use the key right = below = below left=, etc.

See page 229 of manual 3.0.1a.

I slightly cleaned up the code of the superfluous:
for example, you specify draw=none for each block call. Just delete the draw key in the style of the node. But I'm far from having written everything correctly, for example, the tikzstyle syntax is obsolete.

tikzstyle{block} = [rectangle, draw, fill=Apricot!70, 

text width=10em, text centered, rounded corners, minimum height=0em]

Etc.

This is only a first sketch that you need to rework to your liking. I changed some colors to make it easier for you to read this new code.
