  • Multiply-accumulate (MAC) unit for single-instruction/multiple-data (SIMD) instructions
    Patent number: 7107305
    Abstract: A tightly coupled dual 16-bit multiply-accumulate (MAC) unit for performing single-instruction/multiple-data (SIMD) operations may forward an intermediate result to another operation in a pipeline to resolve an accumulating dependency penalty. The MAC unit may also be used to perform 32-bit×32-bit operations.

  • Architecture to support multiple concurrent threads of execution on an arm-compatible processor
    Publication number: 20030225816
    Abstract: Multithreading permits execution of instructions across multiple hardware contexts without software context switching. This may result in lower power consumption, increased throughput, and higher performance. The invention describes an architecture whereby a multithreading processor may be initialized and controlled by threads running on the processor.
