A multiprocessor system-on-chip 102 with dynamic adaptive power management for execution of data-dependent applications comprises strategically placed performance counters to collect run-time performance requirements of tasks. A power manager 130 issues DVS 132, DFS 134, time-out 136, and other controls to the various system resources being monitored. As the tasks execute during run-time, the quality of the match between the task and the resource it was scheduled to is analyzed. More accurate power controls and schedules are then made available and stored in a performance requirements table. The power-management is therefore adaptive and dynamic. During a static analysis phase, applications and tasks that can be pre-characterized for their performance requirements are profiled and pre-loaded as initial starting points for correction during run-time.

A program of instruction words is executed with a VLIW data processing apparatus. The apparatus comprises a plurality of functional units capable of executing a plurality of instructions from each instruction word in parallel. The instructions from each of at least some of the instruction words are fetched from respective memory units in parallel, addressed with an instruction address that is common for the functional units. Translation of the instruction address into a physical address can be modified for one or more particular ones of the memory units. Modification is controlled by modification update instructions in the program. Thus, it can be selected dependent on program execution which instructions from the memory units will be combined into the instruction word in response to the instruction address.

An instruction processing device has a of pipe-line stage with a functional unit for executing a command from an instruction. A first register unit is coupled to the functional unit for storing a result of execution of the command when the command has reached a first one of the pipeline stages, and for supplying bypass operand data to the functional unit. A register file is coupled to the functional unit for storing the result when the command has reached a second one of the pipeline stages, downstream from the first one of the pipeline stages, and for supplying operand data to the functional unit. A disable circuit is coupled to selectively disable storing of the results in the register file under control of the instructions.
摘要:
The data processing device has a plurality of functional units and issues instructions in successive instruction cycles. Instructions of a first type are each intended for one functional unit at a time. An instruction of a second type causes a combination of functional units to respond in the same instruction execution cycle, a result from one functional unit being used by another as part of the execution of the same instruction. Preferably, the device supports alternative operation at a number of different instruction cycle rates, dependent on whether an executed program segment contains instructions of the second type. The fastest instruction cycle rate does not allow execution of the instruction of the second type, because operation by different functional units does not fit within the instruction execution cycle. When possible, the device saves power by switching to a slower clock rate, in which case instructions of the second type are executed to save additional power, by reducing the number of instructions that have to be issued.

An antenna for a wireless device may be kept dynamically tuned to a desired center frequency to compensate for detuning which may be caused by environmental influences. A sensor provides a feedback signal to a controller to select an appropriate capacitance value from a variable capacitor to tune the antenna for the wireless device. The variable capacitor may comprise a plurality of fixed capacitors and MEMS switches arranged in parallel or may comprise a variable MEMS capacitor having a fixed lower plate and a flexible upper plate.

A data processing apparatus has an instruction memory system arranged to output an instruction word addressed by an instruction address. An instruction execution unit, processes a plurality of instructions from the instruction word in parallel. A detection unit, detects in which of a plurality of ranges the instruction address lies. The detection unit is coupled to the instruction execution unit and/or the instruction memory system, to control a way in which the instruction execution unit parallelizes processing of the instructions from the instruction word, dependent on a detected range. In an embodiment the instruction execution unit and/or the instruction memory system adjusts a width of the instruction word that determines a number of instructions from the instruction word that is processed in parallel, dependent on the detected range.
