Zusammenfassung:A data processor ( 200 ) includes a processor core ( 300 ), an interface ( 210 ) coupled to the processor core ( 210 ), and a coprocessor ( 500 ). The coprocessor ( 500 ) is coupled to the processor core ( 300 ) via the interface ( 210 ) and includes a first list memory ( 522 ). In response to a predetermined instruction the processor core ( 300 ) provides an operand to the coprocessor ( 500 ) via the interface ( 210 ). The coprocessor ( 500 ) stores the operand in the first list memory ( 522 ) and performs an operation corresponding to the predetermined instruction using a plurality of values from the first line memory ( 522 ) to provide a result.
