Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated circuit design, in particular to a special application integrated circuit structure for specific application algorithms. 【Background technique】 [0002] As the integrated circuit manufacturing process enters the 90nm-45nm stage, the realization of complex algorithms (such as digital media and wireless communication algorithms, etc.) ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit, that is, application specific integrated circuits) faces long design cycles, high design costs, poor flexibility, The scalability is poor, and it is difficult to meet the needs of rapid product launch and continuous improvement of functions. Therefore, it is becoming more and more important to implement complex algorithms based on processors that support memory instruction control. [0003] However, in order to support the realization of complex algorithms, the general processor and instruction system design method must requir...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in order to support the realization of complex algorithms, the general processor and instruction system design method must require a relatively complex instruction system, instruction format and implementation method, and it is not easy to expand. For example, when the processor needs to support a new operation / When storing functions or adding new computing / storage components, it is often necessary to re-modify the design of the entire processor, or even modify the entire instruction system to support the realization of new functions

[0004] At the same time, based on the algorithm design of the general processor instruction system, the semantics of the program code are clear, it is relatively easy to be copied, and it is difficult to protect the intellectual work of the designer.
