Embodiment 1

[0042] The enhanced processor (Enhance Processor, enhanced processor) of the present invention is applied to electronic equipment, such as figure 1 As shown, the enhanced processor includes:

[0043] A control unit, configured to judge whether a hardware accelerator needs to be enabled according to a currently started application or service, and control the operation of the at least one hardware accelerator when it is judged that it needs to be enabled;

[0044] The control unit completes the overall control and parallel arbitration control according to the application function requirements, which is different from the arbitration method of the current general-purpose processor. Specifically, the control unit can be realized by a central processing unit (CPU) and a system control module (system ctrl), wherein the CPU can recognize instructions from applications and send control instructions to the system control module; the system control module is used for CPU-based control ...

Embodiment 2

[0066] The enhanced processor of the present invention is applied to electronic equipment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the enhanced processor includes a control unit, at least one hardware accelerator, and a multi-pipe connector connected to the control unit and the hardware accelerator, wherein:

[0067] A multi-pipe connector (also referred to herein as Matrix) for providing at least one transmission channel;

[0068] Matrix is ​​a parallel multi-channel pipe connector. These pipes can be bus interfaces or non-bus interfaces such as FIFO and other data interfaces.

[0069] The control unit is configured to judge whether to enable the hardware accelerator according to the currently started application or service, and select at least one transmission channel to control the operation of the at least one hardware accelerator when it is judged that the hardware accelerator needs to be enabled;

[0070] At least one hardware accelerator for data processing of specific application...

Abstract

The invention relates to an enhanced processor and an information processing method. The enhanced processor comprises a control unit and at least one hardware accelerator, wherein the control unit is used for judging whether the at least one hardware accelerator is required to be started or not according to a currently started application or business and controlling the at least one hardware accelerator to operate when the control unit judges that the at least one hardware accelerator is required to be started; the at least one hardware accelerator is used for processing specific application data. According to the enhanced processor and the information processing method, the structure is optimized, so that the processor performance is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, in particular to an enhanced processor, a processing method and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, mobile smart phone terminals generally adopt the architecture of application processor (Application Processor, AP) superimposed on communication processor (CP, also known as baseband chip). The main development direction of the baseband chip CP is: support for multi-mode coexistence, such as: dual-mode dual-standby, three-mode three-standby (supporting long-term evolution (LTE, Long Term Evolution) high-speed data download), etc., but the development direction of the application processor AP But it is a bit extreme: in a relatively short period of time, the main frequency of the AP has continuously increased from 800MH to 2.5G, and the number of CPU cores has also increased from single-core to quad-core, and it has only been less than 3 years to achieve thes...
