Architectures 6/8

Typical internal components of the processor

Inside the processor we usually can find:• universal working registers;• dedicated registers (accumulator, programme counter, stack pointer,

addressing registers, status and control registers, shifting registers);• decoders (for instruction code decoding);• counters;• ALU;• sequential control unit;• external signals buffers;• internal buses.rarely:• built-in data and programme memories.

Page 21: Microprocessor Technique. Bibliography Arnold Ken - Embedded Controller Hardware Design, ISBN: 1878707523; 246 p, 2001, Elsevier Newnes. Stuart Ball -

Architectures 7/8

Example of the status register

S Z - H - P/V N C

S – sign flag

Z – zero flag, =1 when result =0

H – additional carry (or borrow) between 3rd & 4th bits

P/V – parity flag after logic operations (=1 on even number of „1” in result) either overflow flag after arithmetic operations

N – subtraction flag

C – carry flag

Architectures - definitions 8/8

Universal (general-purpose) microprocessor – device which needs external:

• main memory;

• I/O devices.

Single-chip microcomputer – device which contains in one structure:

• processor (eg. core of general-purpose microprocessor);

• main memory (all available or only part of it);

• any I/O devices (I/O ports);

• basic control devices (like: interrupt controller, address decoder, reset circuit, clocking circuit).

Microprocessor acting - definitions 8/14

processor word (machine word) width - the number of bits in binary words, which can be processed by majority of the instructions

address space - processor address range for accesses to memory or I/O devices

stack - specific data structure, working as LIFO register, realised like: built-in register file (hardware) either programme stack (software)

Microprocessor acting - addressing modes 9/14

types of the addressing modes:

• simple - single-component (one binary word pointing the location);

• double-component (operand location - address is the sum of 2 binary words);

• multi-component (operand address is the sum of more than 2 binary words).

addressing mode - the method of pointing in instruction code the location of the operands and results

Microprocessor acting - addressing modes 11/14

Double-component addressing modes

operand_address = base + offset

Components are called variable, if they are taken from registers, or constant (fixed) - if they come with instruction code.

base - should be a binary word with length allowing to access to

whole memory space

offset - can be shorter than base, in NB or C2 code

Basic double-component modes:

offset fixed offset variable

base fixed - index

base variable base base-index

Processor types - RISC 4/11

RISC - Reduced Instruction Set Computer - processors with “short” (about 100) instruction list

Features of the RISC instruction list:

• access to memory allowed only by MOVE instructions;

• all operands should be placed in internal processor registers;

• opcodes have fixed (the same) format (bit-length);

• minimal number of addressing modes.

Page 41: Microprocessor Technique. Bibliography Arnold Ken - Embedded Controller Hardware Design, ISBN: 1878707523; 246 p, 2001, Elsevier Newnes. Stuart Ball -

Processor types - RISC 5/11

Differences between RISC and CISC processors:

• pipelining processing reduces execution time;

• due to: little number of instructions of fixed format and simple addressing modes, control unit is much smaller and faster;

• Harvard architecture in RISC is very popular;

• RISC processor has many working registers, also hardware stack can be implemented, what causes fast calling and interrupt service.

Examples of RISC processors:IBM801, AM29000, Intel 80960, MIPS R2000/R3000, Motorola 88100, Sun SPARC (1988/89), PowerPC family
