| Zusammenfassung: | A processor includes an integer multiplier configured to execute an integer multiply instruction to multiply significand bits of at least one floating point operand of a floating point multiply operation. The processor also includes a floating point multiplier configured to execute a special purpose floating point multiply accumulate instruction with respect to an intermediate result of the floating point multiply operation and the at least one floating point operand to generate a final floating point multiplication result. |
