ABSTRACT:
A method for executing an instruction with a semi-fast operation in a staggered ALU. The method of one embodiment comprises generating a first operation and a second operation from a micro-instruction. The first and second operations are scheduled for execution in a staggered arithmetic logic unit (ALU). The first and second operations are separated by N clock cycles. Data from the first operation is communicated to the second operation for use with execution of the second operation.
