Instruction Overview
Parallel Issue
This instruction can be issued in parallel with specific other instructions.
For more information, see "Issuing Parallel Instructions" on page 20-1.
Example
r3.h = w [ i1 ] ;
r7.h = w [ i3 ++ ] ;
r1.h = w [ i0 -- ] ;
r2.h = w [ p4 ] ;
r5.h = w [ p2 ++ p0 ] ;

Special Applications
To read consecutive, aligned 16-bit values for high-performance DSP
operations, use the Load Data Register instructions instead of these
Half-Word instructions. The Half-Word Load instructions use only half
the available 32-bit data bus bandwidth, possibly imposing a bottleneck
constriction in the data flow rate.
