Abstract :
A configurable data path processor is presented which can be modified to optimize performance. FPGA, PLA and PAL devices provide a great amount of flexibility to realize arbitrary control functions. The new processor is specifically designed for arbitrary data path operations and can be dynamically reconfigured
