A scalar/vector processor

A scalar/vector processor includes a plurality of functional units (252, 260, 262, 264, 266, 268, 270). At least one of the functional units includes a vector section (210) for operating on at least one vector and a scalar section (220) for operating on at least one scalar. The vector section and sc...

Zusammenfassung:A scalar/vector processor includes a plurality of functional units (252, 260, 262, 264, 266, 268, 270). At least one of the functional units includes a vector section (210) for operating on at least one vector and a scalar section (220) for operating on at least one scalar. The vector section and scalar section of the functional unit co-operate by the scalar section being arranged to provide and/or consume at least one scalar required by and/or supplied by the vector section of the functional unit.
