Abstract: In lieu of branch prediction, a merged fetch-branch unit operates in parallel with the decode unit within a processor. Upon detection of a branch instruction within a group of one or more fetched instructions, any instructions preceding the branch are marked- regular instructions, the branch instruction is marked as such, and any instructions following branch are marked sequential instructions. Within two cycles, sequential instructions following the last fetched instruction are retrieved and marked, target instructions beginning at the branch target address are retrieved and marked, and the branch is resolved. Either the sequential or target instructions are then dropped depending on the branch resolution, incurring a fixed, 1 cycle branch penalty.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système amplificateur (30) de puissance et un procédé permettant de réguler un amplificateur de puissance (34) dans un système amplificateur (30) de puissance. Ledit procédé sert à réguler l'amplificateur de puissance (34) d'un système amplificateur (30) de puissance doté d'une boucle permettant de détecter un paramètre proportionnel à la puissance de sortie de l'amplificateur de puissance (30) et de le réintroduire dans un amplificateur d'erreur, la sortie de l'amplificateur d'erreur étant réintroduite dans une sortie de régulation (42) de l'amplificateur de puissance (34) sous forme d'un signal de régulation. Ce procédé permet d'ajouter un gain supplémentaire à la boucle. Du fait de l'adjonction d'un gain supplémentaire, la boucle est toujours à l'état actif, même à de faibles niveaux de puissance de sortie et à des niveaux de puissance élevés de façon à obtenir une régulation de puissance plus robuste.
