MIPS Addressing Modes. What are the different ways to access an operand? • Register addressing. Operand is in register add $s1, $s2, $s3 means. $s1 ? $s2 + $s3. • Base addressing. Operand is in memory. The address is the sum of a register and a constant. lw $s1, 32($s3) means. $s1 ? M[s3 + 32]. As special cases, you 15 Dec 2012 MIPS - Addressing Mode. In MIPS , There's an important part entitled Addressing Modes. Which is one of the core part in MIPS. Let's have a look at Addressing Modes shall we? MIPS IV Instruction Set. Rev 3.2.

Memory may be viewed as a single-dimensional array of individually addressable bytes. 32-bit words are aligned to 4 byte boundaries. – 232 bytes, with addresses from 0 to 232 – 1. – 230 words with addresses 0, 4, 8, , 232 - 4. 4 - 2. 1101 0001. 1100 0101. 0001 1100. 1111 0010. 1010 1100. 0000 0000. 1111 0000. Addressing modes are an aspect of the instruction set architecture in most central processing unit (CPU) designs. The various addressing modes that are defined in a CSL-TR-86-300.pdf) by John L. Hennessy and Mark A. Horowitz 1986: "MIPS-X uses a single addressing mode: base register plus offset. This simple Addressing Modes how do we specify the operand we want? #25. The operand (25) is part of the instruction. R3. (sometimes written $3). The operand is the contents of load-store architecture. instruction formats. ? three (r-, i-, and j-format). operands. ? 3-address code. ? immediate, register, and base+displacement modes. How to Design a Processor: step-by-step. ° 1. Analyze instruction set => datapath requirements. • the meaning of each instruction is given by the register transfers. • datapath must include storage element for ISA registers. - possibly more. • datapath must support each register transfer. ° 2. Select set of datapath components set architect, and. • how those decisions were made in the design of the MIPS instruction set. • MIPS, like SPARC, PowerPC, and Alpha AXP, is a RISC. (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) ISA. – fixed instruction length. – few instruction formats. – load/store architecture. • RISC architectures worked because they enabled. MIPS Addressing Modes. • The MIPS architecture provides two more ways of accessing operands: Constant / Immediate Operands. • Constants are used frequently in all kinds of programs (50% - 70% of arithmetic operands are constants). For example to add 4 to regis- ter $29: lw $t0, AddrConstant4($0)# $t0=constant 4. 8 data registers, 8 address registers. • 12 addressing modes data reg dir, addr reg dir/indir. • limited number of arithmetic instructions operate directly on address registers. • speed: benchmark SPECint92: 21 (4.2 times slower). 68040. SPECfp92 : 15 (6.5 times slower). (than MIPS R4400). • cost: $233 (4.7 times cheaper than
