Short example sentences

In the case of simple fixed-length instruction word ISAs, this is always the same number. (16 words)

Each long instruction word is 64 bits wide and specifies an arithmetic operation and a branch or a load/store. (20 words)

This required small opcodes in order to leave room for a reasonably sized constant in a 32-bit instruction word. (20 words)

Longer example sentences

Each Ivory instruction was 18 bits wide and two instructions plus a 2-bit CDR code and 2-bit Data Type were in each instruction word fetched from memory. (29 words)

For example, a fixed-length 32-bit instruction word ISA that uses 8-bit memory words would always increment the PC by four (except in the case of jumps). (29 words)

In use, a programmer would write several instruction mnemonics alongside one another, and the assembler would combine them with OR to devise the actual instruction word. (26 words)

Example sentences (8)

Each Ivory instruction was 18 bits wide and two instructions plus a 2-bit CDR code and 2-bit Data Type were in each instruction word fetched from memory.

Instruction set The three high-order bits of the 12-bit instruction word (labelled bits 0 through 2) are the operation code.

In use, a programmer would write several instruction mnemonics alongside one another, and the assembler would combine them with OR to devise the actual instruction word.

Each long instruction word is 64 bits wide and specifies an arithmetic operation and a branch or a load/store.

For example, a fixed-length 32-bit instruction word ISA that uses 8-bit memory words would always increment the PC by four (except in the case of jumps).

In the case of simple fixed-length instruction word ISAs, this is always the same number.

Since the program counter counts memory addresses and not instructions, it is incremented by the number of memory units that the instruction word contains.

This required small opcodes in order to leave room for a reasonably sized constant in a 32-bit instruction word.
