Table 2–2. Functional Units and Operations Performed
Functional Unit

.S unit (.S1, .S2)
32-bit arithmetic operations
32/40-bit shifts and 32-bit bit-field operations
32-bit logical operations
Branches

Register transfers to/from the control register file
(.S2 only)
.M unit (.M1, .M2)
16
.D unit (.D1, .D2)
32-bit add, subtract, linear and circular address
calculation
Loads and stores with a 5-bit constant offset
Loads and stores with 15-bit constant offset
(.D2 only)
Note:
Fixed-point operations are available on both the 'C62x and the 'C67x. Floating-point operations and 32-bit fixed-point
multiply are available only on the 'C67x.
2-6
The eight functional units in the 'C62x/C67x data paths can be divided into two
groups of four; each functional unit in one data path is almost identical to the
corresponding unit in the other data path. The functional units are described
in Table 2–2.
16 bit multiply operations
Most data lines in the CPU support 32-bit operands, and some support long
(40-bit) operands. Each functional unit has its own 32-bit write port into a
general-purpose register file. All units ending in 1 (for example, .L1) write to
register file A and all units ending in 2 write to register file B. Each functional
unit has two 32-bit read ports for source operands src1 and src2 . Four units
(.L1, .L2, .S1, and .S2) have an extra 8-bit-wide port for 40-bit long writes, as
well as an 8-bit input for 40-bit long reads. Because each unit has its own 32-bit
write port, all eight units can be used in parallel every cycle.
