15.4 Floating-Point Control Registers

Floating-Point Implementation and Revision Register


The following fields are defined for control register 0 in Coprocessor 1, the FP Implementation and Revision register, as shown in Figure 15-6:

  • The Implementation field holds an 8-bit number, 0x09, which identifies the R10000 implementation of the floating point coprocessor.
  • The Revision field is an 8-bit number that defines a particular revision of the floating point coprocessor. Since it can be arbitrarily changed, it is not defined here.
