Abstract:
Multiple pipelined Translation Look-aside Buffer (TLB) units are configured to compare a translation address with associated TLB entries. The TLB units operated in serial order comparing the translation address with associated TLB entries until an identified one of the TLB units produces a hit. The TLB units following the TLB unit producing the hit might be disabled.
