Introduction (1/2)

Computer Specification

— Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) - the specification of

a computer's appearance to a programmer at its

lowest level

— Computer Architecture - a high-level description of the

hardware implementing the computer derived from the

ISA

— The architecture usually includes additional

specifications such as speed, cost, and reliability.


Lecture 7

Introduction (2/2)

Simple computer architecture decomposed into:

— Datapath for performing operations

— Control unit for controlling datapath operations

A datapath is specified by:

— A set of registers

— The microoperations performed on the data stored in

the registers

— A control interface


Lecture 7

6

Datapaths

Guiding principles for basic datapaths:

— The set of registers

Collection of individual registers

A set of registers with common access resources called a

register file

A combination of the above

— Microoperation implementation

One or more shared resources for implementing

microoperations

Buses - shared transfer paths

Arithmetic-Logic Unit (ALU) - shared resource for implementing

arithmetic and logic microoperations

Shifter - shared resource for implementing shift

microoperations

Datapath Representation (1/3)

Lecture 7

24


Have looked at detailed design of

ALU and shifter in the datapath

on previous slide.

Here we move up one level in the

hierarchy from that datapath.

The registers, and the multiplexer,

decoder, and enable hardware for

accessing them become a register

file .

The ALU, shifter, Mux F and

status hardware become a

function unit.

The remaining muxes and buses

which handle data transfers are at

the new level of the hierarchy.

In the register file:

— Multiplexer select inputs become A

address and B address.

— Decoder input becomes D address

— Multiplexer outputs become A data

and B data.

— Input data to the registers becomes

D data.

— Load enable becomes write.

The register file now appears like a

memory based on clocked flip-flops

(the clock is not shown).

The function unit labeling is quite

straightforward except for FS.

The Control Word

The datapath has many control inputs.

The signals driving these inputs can be defined and

organized into a control word.

To execute a microinstruction, we apply control word

values for a clock cycle. For most microoperations, the

positive edge of the clock cycle is needed to perform the

register load.

The datapath control word format and the field definitions

are shown on the next slide.

Lecture 7

Computer Operation:— is specified by an instr stored in binary, in the

computer’s memory.

— How does the control unit execute an op? The control unit in the computer uses the addr or addrs

provided by the program counter to retrieve the instr from mem.

It then decodes the opcode bits and other information in the instr to perform the required -ops for the execution of the instr.

Microoperation:— is specified by the bits in a control word produced

by hardware or read from control memory.

Computer Operation


Lecture 7

34

An typical instruction specifies:

— Operation to be performed

— Operands to use, and

— Where to place the result, or

— Which instruction to execute next

Instructions are stored in RAM or ROM as a program

The addresses for instructions in a computer are provided by a program counter (PC) that can

— Count up

— Load a new address based on an instruction and, optionally, status information

The PC and associated control logic are part of the Control Unit.

Executing an instruction - activating the necessary sequence of operations specified by the instruction

Execution is controlled by the control unit and performed:

— In the datapath

— In the control unit

— In external hardware such as memory or input/output

Instruction Set Architecture (1/2)


Lecture 7

35

Instruction Set Architecture (2/2)

Instructions: (assembly language level)

— Instruction:

a collection of bits that instructs the computer to perform a

specific op

operation code (opcode), operands

— Instruction set:

the collection of instrs for a computer

— Instruction set architecture (ISA):

a thorough description of the instr set

— Program:

A list of instrs that specifies the ops, the operands, and the

sequence in which processing is to occur.


Lecture 7

lowest software level (typically, machine or assembly language).

Instruction Format (1/5)

An instruction consists of a bit vector.

The fields of an instruction are subvectors representing

specific functions and having specific binary codes

defined.

The format of an instruction defines the subvectors and

their function.

An ISA usually contains multiple formats.

The SC ISA contains the three formats presented on the

next slide.


Lecture 7

38


The three formats are: Register, Immediate, and Jump and Branch.

All formats contain an Opcode field in bits 9 through 15.

The Opcode specifies the operation to be performed.

More details on each format are provided on the next three slides.

This format supports instructions represented by:

— R1 ← R2 + R3

— R1 ← sl R2

There are three 3-bit register fields:

— DR - specifies destination register (R1 in the examples)

— SA - specifies the A source register (R2 in the first example)

— SB - specifies the B source register (R3 in the first example and R2

in the second example)

Why is R2 in the second example SB instead of SA?

— The source for the shifter in our datapath to be used in

implementation is Bus B rather than Bus A

This format supports instructions described by:

The B Source Register field is replaced by an Operand field OP

which specifies a constant.

The Operand:

— 3-bit constant

— Values from 0 to 7

The constant:

— Zero-fill (on the left of) the Operand to form 16-bit constant

— 16-bit representation for values 0 through 7


Lecture 7

41


This instruction supports changes in the sequence of instruction

execution by adding an extended, 6-bit, signed 2’s-complement

address offset to the PC value.

The 6-bit Address (AD) field replaces the DR and SB fields

— Example: Suppose that a jump is specified by the Opcode and the PC

contains 45 (0…0101101) and Address contains – 12 (110100). Then

the new PC value will be:

0…0101101 + (1…110100) = 0…0100001 (45 + (– 12) = 33)

The SA field is retained to permit jumps and branches on N or Z

based on the contents of Source register A.

Instruction Specifications (1/2)

The specifications provide:

— The name of the instruction

— The instruction's opcode

— A shorthand name for the opcode called a mnemonic

— A specification for the instruction format

— A register transfer description of the instruction, and

— A listing of the status bits that are meaningful during an

instruction's execution (not used in the architectures defined in

this chapter)

Control Unit

The Data Memory has been attached to the Address Out and

Data Out and Data In lines of the Datapath.

The MW input to the Data Memory is the Memory Write signal

from the Control Unit.

For convenience, the Instruction Memory, which is not usually a

part of the Control Unit is shown within it.

The Instruction Memory address input is provided by the PC and

its instruction output feeds the Instruction Decoder.

Zero-filled IR(2:0) becomes Constant In

Extended IR(8:6) || IR(2:0) and Bus A are address inputs to the

PC.

The PC is controlled by Branch Control logic.


Lecture 7

47

PC Function (1/2)

PC function is based on instruction specifications involving jumps and

branches:

In addition to the above register transfers, the PC must also

implement: PC ← PC + 1

The first two transfers above require addition to the PC of: Address

Offset = Extended IR(8:6) || IR(2:0)

The third transfer requires that the PC be loaded with: Jump Address

= Bus A = R[SA]

The counting function of the PC requires addition to the PC of 1.

Lecture 7

PC Function (2/2)

Branch Control determines the PC transfers based on five of its

inputs defined as follows:

— N,Z – negative and zero status bits

— PL – load enable for the PC

— JB – Jump/Branch select: If JB = 1, Jump, else Branch

Instruction Decoder (1/5)

The combinational instruction decoder converts the instruction into

the signals necessary to control all parts of the computer during the

single cycle execution.

The input is the 16-bit instruction.

The outputs are control signals:

— Register file addresses DA, AA, and BA.

— Function Unit Select FS

— Multiplexer Select controls MB and MD.

— Register file and Data Memory Write controls RW and MW.

— PL, JB, and BC controls PC.

The register file outputs are simply pass-through signals:

— DA = DR, AA = SA, and BA = SB

Determination of the remaining signals is more complex.


Lecture 7

51


The remaining control signals do not depend on the addresses, so

must be a function of IR(15:9).

Formulation requires examining relationships between the outputs

and the opcodes.

Observe that for other than branches and jumps, FS = IR(12:9)

This implies that the other control signals should depend as much as

possible on IR(15:13) (which actually were assigned with decoding in

mind!).

To make some sense of this, we divide instructions into types as

shown in the table on the next page

Lecture 7

The types are based on the blocks controlled and the seven signals to be

generated; types can be divided into two groups:

— Datapath and Memory Control (First 4 types)

— PC Control (Last 3 types)

In Datapath and Memory Control blocks controlled are considered:

— Mux B (4th type)

— Memory and Mux D (2nd and 3rd types)

— By assigning codes with no or only one 1 for these, implementation of MB, MD,

RW and MW are simplified.

In Control Unit more of a bit setting approach was used:

— Bit 15 = Bit 14 = 1 were assigned to generate PL.

— Bit 13 values were assigned to generate JB.

— Bit 9 was used as BC which contradicts FS = 0000 needed for branches. To

force FS(6) to 0 for branches, Bit 9 into FS(6) is disabled by PL.

Also, useful bit correlations between values in the two groups were

exploited in assigning the codes.


Lecture 7

54


The end result by use of

the types, careful

assignment of codes,

and use of don't cares,

yields very simple logic:

This completes the

design of most of the

essential parts of

the single-cycle

simple computer
