ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor employs pipelined architecture and comprises a first execution processor for executing and processing a first kind of instructions among decoded instructions according to microprogram control, a second execution processor for executing and processing a second kind of instructions which are different from the first kind of instructions according to hardwired control, and a controller. The controller issues decoded instructions in a program sequence, selectively determines for each of the decoded instructions which of the first and second execution processors shall execute and process an instruction, and operates the first and second execution processors independently of each other and in parallel with each other.
