7.2.2 Datapath Module
The datapath contains an 8-bit single cycle ALU, with associated compare and condition generation logic. This datapath block is
optimized to implement embedded functions, such as timers, counters, integrators, PWMs, PRS, CRC, shifters and dead band
generators and many others.

7.2.2.1 Working Registers
7.2.2.2 Dynamic Datapath Configuration RAM
Dynamic configuration is the ability to change the datapath
function and internal configuration on a cycle-by-cycle basis,
under sequencer control. This is implemented using the
8-word × 16-bit configuration RAM, which stores eight unique
16-bit wide configurations. The address input to this RAM
controls the sequence, and can be routed from any block
connected to the UDB routing matrix, most typically PLD logic,
I/O pins, or from the outputs of this or other datapath blocks.
The datapath contains six primary working registers, which are
accessed by CPU firmware or DMA during normal operation.

Description
A0 and A1 Accumulators
These are sources and sinks for
the ALU and also sources for the
compares.
ALU
D0 and D1 Data Registers These are sources for the ALU
and sources for the compares.
The ALU performs eight general purpose functions. They are:
Increment
F0 and F1 FIFOs
These are the primary interface
to the system bus. They can be a
data source for the data registers
and accumulators or they can
capture data from the accumu-
lators or ALU. Each FIFO is four
bytes deep.
