Application: Vector simd vliw data path architecture (Patent ID: US20240211254A1)
The patent filed by Texas Instruments Inc. describes a Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) digital signal processor designed for single instruction multiple data (SIMD) operation on various operand widths and data sizes. The processor includes a vector compare instruction to compare operands and store compare bits, a vector conditional instruction for conditional operations based on predicate data register bits, and a predicate unit for data processing operations on predicate data registers, including unary and binary operations, as well as data transfer between general and predicate data registers.
The patent claims detail a device with registers for data and predicates, a predicate unit circuit for determining predicate values, and a functional unit circuit for performing operations based on these values. The method involves receiving predicate values, performing operations to determine a third predicate value, receiving data, and deciding whether to perform operations on the data based on the predicate value. The device also includes multiple functional unit circuits for comparisons and operations, as well as the ability to store predicate vectors. Overall, the patent focuses on a specialized VLIW processor optimized for SIMD operations with efficient predicate handling and conditional execution capabilities.
