Abstract
A sequence operation processor and a sequence operation processing method for processing sequence operations at high speed using a multi-port RAM. The sequence operation processor reads data from the multi-port RAM and performs operations as instructed. An operation result which is to be written into RAM is stored in a data register and in a desired address of the multi-port RAM. If the next sequence operation requires that a different address in the multi-port RAM be read, the sequence operation processor writes the operation result to the previously desired address and simultaneously reads the data corresponding to the designated address of the next sequence operation. If, on the other hand, an address where the sequence operation result is to be written is identical to the address from which data used for the next sequence operation is to be read, the sequence operation processor writes the operation result to the multi-port RAM, and reads the data required for the next sequence operation from the data register.
