Freescale Semiconductor 1-9
Figure 1-2 provides a block diagram of the e300 core that shows how the execution units (IU1, IU2, FPU,
BPU, LSU, and SRU) operate independently and in parallel. Note that this is a conceptual diagram that
does not attempt to show how these features are physically implemented on the chip.
