    • An arrangement is provided for compressing microcode ROM (“uROM”) in a processor and for efficiently accessing a compressed “uROM”. A clustering-based approach may be used to effectively compress a uROM. The approach groups similar columns of microcode into different clusters and identifies unique patterns within each cluster. Only unique patterns identified in each cluster are stored in a pattern storage. Indices, which help map an address of a microcode word (“uOP”) to be fetched from a uROM to unique patterns required for the uOP, may be stored in an index storage. Typically it takes a longer time to fetch a uOP from a compressed uROM than from an uncompressed uROM. The compressed uROM may be so designed that the process of fetching a uOP (or uOPs) from a compressed uROM may be fully-pipelined to reduce the access latency.
    • 提供了一种用于在处理器中压缩微代码ROM(“uROM”)并有效访问压缩的“uROM”的装置。 可以使用基于聚类的方法来有效地压缩uROM。 该方法将相似的微代码列组合成不同的集群,并识别每个集群内的唯一模式。 每个集群中唯一标识的模式都存储在模式存储中。 帮助将从uROM获取的微代码字(“uOP”)的地址映射到uOP所需的唯一模式的索引可以存储在索引存储器中。 通常,从压缩的uROM获取uop比从未压缩的uROM获取更长的时间。 压缩的uROM可以被设计成使得从压缩的uROM获取uop(或uop)的过程可以被完全流水线化以减少访问等待时间。
