Ppc Processor Functional Description

This hardware component is a PPC405 processor core.

This ISS uses the ISS2 API and should be wrapped with an VciXcacheWrapper.

The simulation model is actually an instruction set simulator, organised as a two-stage pipeline:

  • First stage: instruction fetch & execute with a possible access to the external data cache.
  • Second stage: read memory access is written back to registers

The main functional specifications are the following:

  • The floating point instructions are not supported
  • There is no TLB, and no hardware support for virtual memory directly in the ISS. Nevertheless, MMU may be supported through the cache.
