Hi.,

can you please let me know how barrel shifter works in arm core..?
Why one of the source register is connected to ALU directly, whereas other source register is connect to ALU via Barrel shifter..?


Thanks,
 

Review the ARM datasheet, particularly the "shifts" paragraph the instruction set / data processing chapter.
