computer architecture - Where does the MIPS opcode lookup table exist? -
we covering mips architecture. gaining understanding of computer architecture , mips assembly, good.
however, tried googling reply have not found suitable answer. confused layer below isa , micro architecture design. mips opcode lookup table exist, in specific location in memory ? how variable , variable types represented in mips (since format of variable type or variables in binary not specified in mips opcode, rather mips assembly instructions). give thanks you.
edit: cpu of it's lookup table (or opcode table useful reference programmers , table doesn't exist in hardware)? or mips hardware configured acts per mips opcode?
if want mips assembly opcodes (aka mips "instruction set"), should refer mips documentation. example:
http://www.mrc.uidaho.edu/mrc/people/jff/digital/mipsir.html
the mips hardware implements instruction set. there no "lookup table" per se in cpu.
the specific part of cpu responsible "instruction decoder", part of "control unit". here's short animation gives more details instruction fetch/decode/execute cycle:
