A modem chip includes a processor configured to generate instructions, a timing controller configured to respectively generate control signals corresponding to the instructions at the execution timesof the instructions, and a plurality of intellectual property blocks, each configured to operate in response to a corresponding control signal of the control signals. The timing controller includes aheap sorting circuit configured to sort the instructions according to execution orders of the instructions based on heap sorting using the execution times, a reference counter configured to generate areference time, and a signal generator configured to generate a control signal corresponding to a current instruction when the reference time matches the execution time of the current instruction having a highest execution order among the instructions. 一种调制解调器芯片包括：处理器，被配置为生成指令；定时控制器，被配置为在指令的执行时间分别生成与指令相对应的控制信号；以及多个知识产权块，每个被配置为响应于控制信号中的对应的控制信号进行操作。定时控制器包括：堆排序电路，被配置为使用执行时间、基于堆排序、根据指令的执行次序对指令进行排序；参考计数器，被配置为生成参考时间；以及信号生成器，被配置为
