Having the floating-point unit integrated on chip provides two advantages. First, it improves the performance of the chip for floating-point applications, since no additional bus overhead is associated with floating- point calculations, thereby leaving more time for other bus operations such as I/O. Second, the cost of using floating-point operations is reduced because a separate coprocessor chip is not required. The 80960SB floating-point (real-number) data types include single-precision (32-bit), double-precision (64-bit) and extended precision (80-bit) floating-point numbers. Any registers may be used to execute floating-point operations. The processor provides hardware support for both mandatory and recommended portions of IEEE Standard 754 for floating-point arithmetic, including all arithmetic, exponential, logarithmic and other transcendental functions. Table 3 shows execution times for some representative instructions. 1.1.8 High Bandwidth Bus The 80960SB CPU resides on a high-bandwidth address/data bus. The bus provides a direct commu- nication path between the processor and the memory and I/O subsystem interfaces. The processor uses the bus to fetch instructions, manipulate memory and respond to interrupts. Bus features include: • 16-bit data path multiplexed onto the lower bits of the 32-bit address path • Eight 16-bit half-word burst capability which allows transfers from 1 to 16 bytes at a time • High bandwidth reads and writes with 25.6 MBytes/s burst (at 16 MHz) Table 4 defines bus signal names and functions; Table 5 defines other component-support signals such as interrupt lines.
