A microsequencer is disclosed that controls the order in which microcode instructions are fetched from a microcode ROM. Each microcode instruction includes an execution command for execution by one or more execution units. Each microcode instruction also includes a microsequencer command to indicate the location of another microcode instruction at the microcode ROM. The microcode instruction can also include a delay field, indicating a selectable time when the associated microcode instruction is to be decoded. The delay field thereby provides more flexible control of the sequencing of microcode instructions.
