4.2.15 MPYSP2DP Instruction
The MPYSP2DP instruction uses the E1 through E5 phases of the pipeline to
complete its operations (see Table 4−17). src1 and src2 are read on E1. The
lower 32 bits of the result are written on E4, and the upper 32 bits of the result
are written on E5. The MPYSP2DP instruction is executed on the .M unit. The
functional unit latency for the MPYSP2DP instruction is 2. Figure 4−27 shows
the fetch, decode, and execute phases of the pipeline that the MPYSP2DP
instruction uses.

4.3 Functional Unit Constraints
If you want to optimize your instruction pipeline, consider the instructions that
are executed on each unit. Sources and destinations are read and written
differently for each instruction. If you analyze these differences, you can make
further optimization improvements by considering what happens during the
execution phases of instructions that use the same functional unit in each
execution packet.
The following sections provide information about what happens during each
execute phase of the instructions within a category for each of the functional
units.
