Pipeline Overview
AVR32UC has three pipeline stages, Instruction Fetch (IF), Instruction Decode (ID), and Instruc-
tion Execute (EX). The EX stage is split into three parallel subsections, one arithmetic/logic
(ALU) section, one multiply (MUL) section, and one load/store (LS) section.
tion Execute (EX). The EX stage is split into three parallel subsections, one arithmetic/logic
(ALU) section, one multiply (MUL) section, and one load/store (LS) section.
Instructions are issued and complete in order. Certain operations require several clock cycles to
complete, and in this case, the instruction resides in the ID and EX stages for the required num-
ber of clock cycles. Since there is only three pipeline stages, no internal data forwarding is
required, and no data dependencies can arise in the pipeline.
