Section 4 Pipelining
4.3 Issue Rates and Execution Cycles
Instruction execution cycles are summarized in table 4.4. Instruction Group in the table 4.4
corresponds to the category in the table 4.2. Penalty cycles due to a pipeline stall are not
considered in the issue rates and execution cycles in this section.
1. Issue Rate
Issue rates indicates the issue period between one instruction and next instruction.
E.g. AND.B instruction
I1
I2
ID
Next instruction
S1
S2
S3 WB
ID
ID E1S1 E2S2 E3S3 WB
Issue rate: 3
(I1)
(I2)
(ID)
E.g. MAC.W instruction
I1
I2
ID S1
S2 S3 WB
ID
S1
S2
S3 WB
Issue rate: 2
M2 M3 MS
Next instruction (I1) (I2) ^(ID)
2. Execution Cycles
Execution cycles indicates the cycle counts an instruction occupied the pipeline based on the next rules.
CPU instruction
E.g. AND.B instruction
Execution Cycles: 3
