Abstract
An information processing apparatus including a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver for receiving a radio wave from a GPS satellite and a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) type microprocessor for processing signals corresponding to the radio wave received by the GPS receiver. The GPS receiver and RISC type microprocessor are incorporated into a single integrated circuit chip, and the RISC type microprocessor is provided with a bypass circuit which facilitates the execution of conditional branch instructions.
