Latest Patents
Ronald T. Prodan holds a patent for a "Method and apparatus for locating effective operand of an instruction." This invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining the address mode of each instruction in a microprogrammed processor. It utilizes address mode determination to locate the effective operand of the instruction. The invention includes a microprogram memory that contains microprogram micro-orders for controlling the obtaining of the effective operand for an instruction in each of the address modes. The address being accessed in the microprogram memory at any given time is stored in a microprogram register. A decoder operates in response to the address mode tag of an instruction to generate the address of the entry point in the microprogram memory for the microprogram micro-orders. This process initiates the execution of the microprogram micro-orders for the indicated mode, controlling the obtaining of the desired effective operand.
