APPARATUS FOR EXECUTING INSTRUMENTATION AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: An instrumentation executing device and method are provided to add wanted operation to an execution program and to enable the execution of an executive program using hardware. CONSTITUTION: A code converter(112) sets an instrumentation bit to an instruction to be execute the instrumentation and also sets the address of a branched memory for executing an instrumentation code. The instrumentation bit represents the instruction to be executed. A register(116) stores the address of the memory to be branched. A controller(114) fetches the instruction. If the instrumentation bit is set to the fetched instruction, the controller branches to the address of the memory to be executed and the instrumentation code is executed.
