Abstract

The invention relates to an arrangement for the configuration of data paths, in which different functional units are connected to a linker unit and arranged within a CPU architecture. The aim of the invention is to permit functional extensions within the CPU architecture without essentially extending the networking complexity between the functional units and the controlling register of the CPU. Said aim is achieved, whereby the linking unit essentially comprises a processor bus arrangement and functional units with dedicated input registers and output registers.
