CS4100: 計算機結構Designing a Multicycle Processor 國立清華大學資訊工程學系 九十五學年度第一學期 Adapted from class notes of D. Patterson and W. Dally Copyright 1998, 2000 UCB Outline Designing a processor Building the datapath A single-cycle implementation A multicycle implementation Microprogramming: simplifying control (Appendix C.4) Exceptions Recap: A Single-Cycle Processor What’s Wrong with Single-cycle?
