It describes computers with multiple processing elements that perform the same operation on multiple data simultaneously. Thus, such machines exploit data level parallelism. History The first use of SIMD instructions was in vector supercomputers of the early 1970s such as the CDC Star-100 and the Texas Instruments ASC, which could operate on a vector of data with a single instruction. Vector processing was especially popularized by Cray in the 1970s and 1980s. Vector-processing architectures are now considered separate from SIMD machines, based on the fact that vector machines processed the vectors one word at a time through pipelined processors (though still based on a single instruction), whereas modern SIMD machines process all elements of the vector simultaneously.[1] The first era of modern SIMD machines was characterized by massively parallel processing-style supercomputers such as the Thinking Machines CM-1 and CM-2. These machines had many limited-functionality processors that would work in parallel. -

MPC555 Interrupts by John Dunlop, Josef Fuchs, and Steve Mihalik Rev
Order this document by: MOTOROLA AN2109/D SEMICONDUCTOR APPLICATION NOTE MPC555 Interrupts by John Dunlop, Josef Fuchs, and Steve Mihalik Rev. 0, 26 July 2001 1 Introduction The MPC555 has numerous timers, peripherals and input pins that can generate interrupts. This appli- cation note describes how the interrupts work and how to write software for their initialization and ser- vice routines. Examples illustrate how interrupt handler routines written in assembler, C and even controlled by an operating system can have a dramatic variation in overhead. This overhead is almost entirely caused by the amount of context, (i.e., registers), saved and restored in the routine. Although this application note focuses on interrupts, the discussion of context saving and restoring ap- plies to other exceptions as well as other Motorola PowerPC™ microcontrollers. In addition, later MPC5xx microprocessors include an enhanced interrupt controller which has features to reduce laten- cy. A summary of these features, which are optional to use in these later microcontrollers is listed in Section Appendix B Enhanced Interrupt Controller Summary. 2 Background 2.1 Interrupts versus Exceptions Definitions of “interrupts” and “exceptions” are not always consistent in PowerPC™ literature. The fol- lowing definitions are used for this application note. Exceptions are events that change normal program flow and machine state. Some examples of excep- tions are reset, decrementer passing zero, system call instruction, various bus access errors, and even a software or hardware debugger. When an exception occurs, a short hardware context switch takes place and the processor branches to an address (exception vector) which is unique for each type of ex- ception. -
