The program cache includes a software and performance transparent 256-bit line buffer. The line buffer minimizes accesses to the underlying cache/SRAM in the case of back-to-back hits to the same line; doing so minimizes power consumption. The line buffer is allocated on any program cache access to a new line. As long as subsequent program fetches are to the same line, the data returns to ARP32 directly from the line buffer.
