A condition in which the master processor’s floating-point multiply unit is stalled or its pipeline is full; therefore, the unit cannot accept a new instruction.
Industry:Semiconductors
A pseudoregister in the debugger that shows the number of CPU cycles consumed during benchmarking.
Industry:Semiconductors
Any entity capable of sending and receiving messages, such as a processor port.
Industry:Semiconductors
The master processor register that points to the instruction currently in the fetch stage of the pipeline.
Industry:Semiconductors
A condition in which the receive FIFO buffer of the port is full and another word is received in the receive shift register (RSR). (None of the contents of the FIFO buffer are overwritten by this new word.)
Industry:Semiconductors
A pulse that signals the start of a transmission from or reception into the synchronous serial port.
Industry:Semiconductors
Any entry in the symbol table that indicates how a symbol should be accessed.
Industry:Semiconductors
The master processor’s (MP) two SRAM banks that hold cached data needed by the MP. Data RAMs for the parallel processors are not cached. See also SRAM banks.
Industry:Semiconductors
A condition in which the result of an arithmetic operation exceeds the capacity of the register used to hold that result.
Industry:Semiconductors
A queue of tasks waiting at a port for messages or waiting at a semaphore for signals.
