1. A microprocessor, comprising: a configuration register configured to store an enable value for selecting either a flat memory address mode or a segmentation address mode; an instruction decode unit coupled to said configuration register, wherein said instruction decode unit is configured to detect...
What is a binary semaphore in an operating system? Consider a 32-bit microprocessor and a 16-bit microprocessor with identical bus cycles. A bus cycle is the number of clock cycles needed to make a data transfer. Assume that, on average, 20% of the m ...
Figure 1 below shows the architecture of a typical dual-CPU SoC. The blocks in blue implement on-chip redundancy which we call Sphere of Replication (SoR). Each SoR contains identical CPUs (e200z4), eDMA controllers, interrupt controllers, crossbar bus systems, system timers, software watchdog...
