ABSTRACT:
A pipeline arithmetic and logic system capable of adjusting operational timings among stages without using an NOP instruction, providing a size reduction of its control section. The system has a decoder set including decoder groups divided into a decoder group for controlling an arithmetic section unit, a register file unit and a program counter unit, and a decoder for control of an address unit, and further including a clock control unit controlled by the address unit control decoder. A clock signal from an external source is directly fed to the address unit while being fed through the clock control unit to the other units. When fetching a data transfer instruction and repeatedly executing an MA stage twice, the system stops the clock control unit at the execution of the first MA stage to inhibit the operations of the units other than the address unit.
