6.6 Multiply and multiply accumulate
The multiply instructions use special hardware that implements integer multiplication
with early termination. All cycles except the first are internal.
The cycle timings are listed in the following tables:
• multiply instruction cycle operations are listed in Table 6-5
• multiply accumulate instruction cycle operations are listed in Table 6-6
• multiply long instruction cycle operations are listed in Table 6-7 on page 6-10
• multiply accumulate long instruction cycle operations are listed in Table 6-8 on
page 6-10.
In Table 6-5 to Table 6-8 on page 6-10:
• m is the number of cycles required by the multiplication algorithm. See
Instruction speed summary on page 6-29.
