How to Design a Processor: step-by-step 1. Analyze instruction set architecture (ISA) => datapath requirements • meaning of each instruction is given by the register transfers • datapath must include storage element for ISA registers • datapath must support each register transfer 2. Select set of datapath components and establish clocking methodology 3. Assemble datapath meeting requirements 4. Analyze implementation of each instruction to determine setting of control points that effects the register transfer. 5. Assemble the control logic
Step 3: Assemble DataPath meeting requirements • Register Transfer Requirements Datapath Assembly • Instruction Fetch • Read Operands and Execute Operation
Next Address Logic Address Instruction Memory 3a: Overview of the Instruction Fetch Unit • The common RTL operations • Fetch the Instruction: mem[PC] • Update the program counter: • Sequential Code: PC PC + 4 • Branch and Jump: PC “something else” clk PC Instruction Word 32
3b: Add & Subtract • R[rd] = R[rs] op R[rt] Ex.: addU rd,rs,rt • Ra, Rb, and Rw come from instruction’s Rs, Rt, and Rd fields • ALUctr and RegWr: control logic after decoding the instruction 31 26 21 16 11 6 0 op rs rt rd shamt funct 6 bits 5 bits 5 bits 5 bits 5 bits 6 bits Rd Rs Rt ALUctr RegWr 5 5 5 busA Rw Ra Rb busW 32 Result 32 32-bit Registers ALU 32 32 busB clk 32 Already defined the register file & ALU
Clocking Methodology Clk • 存储单元由同样的边缘定时 • 物理设备, flip-flops (FF)和组合逻辑会有一些延时 • 门电路: 输入引起输出变化之间有延时 • 在FF D输入端的信号必须稳定,然后,激发时钟边缘才允许信号FF (set-up time)中通过, 因此这里也会有clock-to-Q延时 • “关键路径Critical path” (通过逻辑电路的最长路径) 确定时钟周期的长度 . . . . . . . . . . . .
