Definition of "data path" |
A data path (also written as datapath) is a set of functional units that function to process data. The central processing unit (CPU) in a computer contains data paths that route data between these functional units. A larger data path can also be created by joining data paths together using multiplexers.Currently, data paths can only be configured once, which makes for less efficiency in CPUs. Researchers are now trying to find ways to make data paths reconfigurable and imprinted on fabrics. This would allow them to be configurable at runtime, providing for improved efficiency in CPUs. / the internal bus via which the processor ships data, for example, from the functional units to the register file, and vice versa. |
