Receiver register overrun indicator bit. A bit within the I/O status register (IOSR) which indicates whether overrun has occurred in the receiver of the asynchronous serial port; that is, whether an unread character in the asynchronous data transmit and receive register (ADTR) has been overwritten by a new character.
Industry:Semiconductors
A 32-bit control mask used by the serial register transfer (SRT) controller for address calculation.
This mask contains a 1 in the bit position above the most significant 1 in the serial access memory mask (SAMMASK) register.
Industry:Semiconductors
A memory-mapped register used to mask external and internal interrupts. Writing a 1 to any IMR bit position enables the corresponding interrupt (when INTM = 0).
Industry:Semiconductors
An access in a parallel processor’s local RAM that can be performed through the local port. Such access is done in a single cycle.
If an access is attempted through the local port but is not local legal, access must be diverted to the global port, causing a pipeline stall.
Industry:Semiconductors
A 32-bit representation of a floating point number with a 24-bit mantissa and an 8-bit exponent.
Industry:Semiconductors
A message sent by a client to request service from a server.
Industry:Semiconductors
An address external to the chip. Addresses from 0x0200 0000 to 0xFFFF FFFF are off-chip addresses. See also on-chip address.
Industry:Semiconductors
Row address strobe. A memory interface signal that drives the row address strobe inputs of dynamic RAM (DRAM) and/or video RAM (VRAM).
Industry:Semiconductors
A 32-bit shifter that performs a 0, 1, or 4-bit left shift, or a 6-bit right shift of the multiplier product. The left-shift options are used to manage the additional sign bits resulting from the 2s-complement multiply. The right-shift option is used to scale down the number to manage the overflow of product accumulation in the central arithmetic logic unit (CALU).
