    Abstract: ARRANGEMENT IN THE INSTRUCTION UNIT OF A MICROPROGRAM-CONTROLLED PROCESSOR FOR THE DIRECT HARDWARE-CONTROLLED EXECUTION OF PARTICULAR INSTRUCTIONS In a microprogram-controlled processor, having an additional operating mode in which particular functions can be executed under direct hardware control, a mode latch is provided signalizing the instruction decoder whether micro program instructions or directly controlled macro instructions are to be executed. The microprogram instructions are executed in the usual manner. For the execution of the directly controlled macro instructions, the control storage of the processor is not required for supplying micro instructions. Instead, this storage with the operation decoder as an address supplies one or several hardware control words. The hardware control words consist of individual control bits, each of which directly controls one hardware function.

    Abstract: In the processing of instructions in data processing systems it is not always possible to execute these instructions without interruption since particular situations, in the following called events can occur which necessitate a short interruption for executing the operations caused by such events before continuing the interrupted instruction processing. Such repetition however is only possible when the contents of the operation register containing the instruction is frozen during the interruption. Such a situation requires two actions: the first is the execution of a forced operation to resolve the event. The second action is a repetition of the instruction and execution phase of the interrupted instruction.

    Abstract: ARRANGEMENT FOR MICRO INSTRUCTION CONTROL In a micro-controlled data handling system the number of lines and pins required to transfer control signals from the microprogram controls to integrated circuit modules controlled by such signals is conserved by using two bussing paths for distributing the control signals to the modules. A first path is dedicated exclusively to pre-decoded control signal functions and a second path is shared for transferring both data and control signal functions. Each controlled module contains an additional decoding circuit for combinationally decoding control signal functions received through both paths.
