Fetch Stage(s)

Vasil Bogdev edited this page Sep 26, 2024 · 1 revision

At the moment, the fetch stage consists of the worst branch predictor known to man and an instruction cache. This stage is actually 4 stages combined in 1, where the predictor takes 1 cycle and the cache has a latency of 3 cycles. The predictor will be replaced soon, and it will probably be 2 stages instead of 1 based off my early designs.
