    • An integrated memory has at least two connection panels, which can be operated independently of one another, for external communication by the memory. In addition, a control circuit produces a number of first control signals and a number of second control signals for external tap-off. The number of first control signals corresponds to a number of memory banks. The first control signals are each associated with a memory bank and indicate that an associated memory bank is being accessed. The number of second control signals corresponds to the number of connection panels. One of the second control signals is produced if an access collision occurs between access to one of the memory banks via one connection panel and access to the same memory bank via another connection panel. Two processor units are connected to the connection panels and access the memory independently of one another on the basis of the control signals.

    • A CPU or microprocessor which includes a general purpose CPU component, such as an X86 core, and also includes a DSP core. In a first embodiment, the CPU receives general purpose instructions, such as X86 instructions, wherein certain X86 instruction sequences implement DSP functions. The CPU includes a processor mode register which is written with one or more processor mode bits to indicate whether an instruction sequence implements a DSP function. The CPU also includes an intelligent DSP function decoder or preprocessor which examines the processor mode bits and determines if a DSP function is being executed. If a DSP function is being implemented by an instruction sequence, the DSP function decoder converts or maps the opcodes to a DSP macro instruction that is provided to the DSP core. The DSP core executes one or more DSP instructions to implement the desired DSP function in response to the macro instruction. If the processor mode bits indicate that X86 instructions in the instruction memory do not implement a DSP-type function, the opcodes are provided to the X86 core as which occurs in current prior art computer systems. In a second embodiment, the CPU receives sequences of instructions comprising X86 instructions and DSP instructions.

    • A digital signal processing apparatus and information processing system provide sufficient arithmetic operation performance to process high rate signals in real time and high programming performance to deal with various applications. A group of processor elements is constituted by individual processor elements each formed by disposing an arithmetic and logic unit on the bit lines of a multiport memory wherein their number is equal to or larger than the number of the data bits in a series of serial data, and the plurality of processor elements constituting the group of processor elements are uniformly controlled by controllers mounted on the same silicon chip. Consequently, the multiport memory functioning as a buffer for input data and the arithmetic and logic unit are closely joined together, so data can be communicated smoothly between them. Since the plurality of processor elements are controlled by a single controller so as to operate as a parallel computer, a digital signal processor with a high processing speed can be implemented.

    • This invention performs conditional operations and conditional branches based upon mixed conditions. The invention performs a first arithmetic/logical operation via an arithmetic logic unit (230). At least one status bit in a status register (210) is set based upon the results. This status bit could be a negative status bit, a carry out status bit, an overflow status bit or a zero status bit. In a first embodiment, the arithmetic logic unit (230) performs a second operation conditional upon a selected one of the status bits. The status bits are then set based upon the results of this second operation. A third operation, which could be an arithmetic logic unit operation, a memory load, memory store, a register to register move, a subroutine call, subroutine return or program branch, is conditional upon the selected status bit, thus performing upon the logical AND of the results of the first and second operations. In a second embodiment, the second operation is conditioned on the inverse of the selected status bit. The result of this second operation also sets the status bits. The third operation is conditional upon the selected status bit. Thus the third operation is performed if either the first operation or the second operation sets the selected status bit forming a logical OR of the results of the first and second operations.
