[comp.sys.m68k] mc68010 execution time

cypark@june.cs.washington.edu (Chang Yun Park) (04/13/89)

I have a question about execution timing of MC68010.
According to the manual, MC68010 executes an instruction exactly in
its defined execution time.(except for "conditional branch")
For example, "addw d0,d1" always takes 4 clock cycles. 
(Here, I assume that the instruction is already prefetched and 
 there is no exception like interrupt or bus error.)
Is this always correct?
If not, what kind of factors make the execution time nondeterministic?

Thank you.
