 SIMD is the technique used to data level parallelism
 The data is distributed across different parallel
computing units. These computing units are called
processing units (PU).
 Each PU is some functional unit that performs some
task on different pieces of distributed data.
 The single execution thread controls operation on all
the pieces of the data.
 The SIMD handles data manipulation.

29
 All algorithms cannot take advantage of SIMD
 Most of the compilers do not generate SIMD instructions
 Programming with SIMD instructions involves various low level
challenges because of architecture, data, number
representation mismatch.

31
 The superscalar processing employs instruction-level parallelism.
Therefore multiple instructions are executed in one cycle.
 The Power PC and pentium processors use superscalar
architectures.
 There are multiple memories with separate data buses.
 Multiple instructions can be executed simultaneously with separate
set of execution unit consisting of ALU, multiplier and shifters.
 The execution units take inputs from register file and returns result
in the same.

34
Bus Structure :-
 There are separate program and data buses.
 The program address bus (PAB) addresses to the program
memory.
 The data read address bus (DAB) addresses to the program as
well as data memory.
 The program bus (PB) carries the instructions from program
memory.
 These instructions are given further to CPU for execution.
 The data read bus (DB) carries the data required for execution.
 It gets the data from the I/O ports, CPU or data memory
 High degree of parallelism is obtained because of 4 types of bus.

35
Central Processing Unit :-
The Central Processing unit consists of 32 bit ALU/accumulator,
scaling shifter, parallel logic unit (PLU), parallel multiplier and auxillary
register arithmetic unit (ARAU).
32-bit ALU / Accumulator:-
 The 32-bit ALU and accumulator performs arithmetic and
logical functions.
 Almost all of these functions are executed in single cycle.
 ALU can also perform boolean operations.
 ALU takes its operands from accumulator, shifter and multiplier

36
Scaling Shifter:-
 has 16 bit input connected to the data bus.
 has 32 bit output connected to the ALU.
 Produces a left shift of 0 to 16 bits on the input data
 Other shifters perform numerical scaling, bit extraction, extended
precision arithmetic and overflow prevention.
Parallel Logic unit (PLU) :-
 The parallel logic unit (PLU) is the second logic unit.
 It executes logic operations on the data without affecting the
contents of ACC.
 PLU provides bit manipulation which can be used to set, clear, test
or toggle bits in data memory control or status registers.

37
16 X 16 bit parallel multiplier
 This is 16 X 16 bit hardware multiplier is capable of multiplying
signed or unsigned 32 bit product in a single machine cycle.
 The two number being multiplied are treated as 2’s complement
number and the result is also a 32 bit 2’s complement number.
Auxillary registers and auxillary register arithmetic unit (ARAU).
 This is a register file of eight auxillary registers.
 These registers are used for temporary data storage.
 The auxillary register file (AR0 -AR7) is connected to the auxillary
register arithmetic unit (ARAU).

38
 The contents of the auxillary registers can be stored in data
memory or used as inputs to central arithmetic logic unit (CALU)
 The ARAU helps to speed up the operation of CALU.
Program Controller:-
 The program controller decodes the instructions, manages the
CPU pipeline, stores the status of CPU operations and decodes
conditional operations.
 The program controller consists of program sequencer, address
generator, program counter, instruction register, status and
control registers and hardware stack.
I/O Ports:-
 There are total 64 I/O ports.
 Out of these there are 16 ports memory mapped in data memory
Space.
