This proposed instruction set is intended to run on both virtual and physical incarnations of the 4-Bit HRRG Computer As you may recall, my chum Chewy is interested in designing and building a 4-bit ...
The S5000 software-configurable processor family combines the flexibility of the compilable Tensilica Xtensa RISC processor core and the programmable Stretch instruction-set extension fabric (ISEF) to ...
Most of us will be familiar at some level with the operation of a basic CPU, usually through exposure to microprocessors of the type that find their way into our projects. We can look at its internal ...
An Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) defines the software interface through which for example a central processor unit (CPU) is controlled. Unlike early computer systems which didn’t define a ...
Forward-looking: After being beaten by AMD in introducing the first, truly 64-bit instruction set in the x86 CPU world, Intel is now trying to get ahead of its historical competitor by working on a ...
A technical paper titled “Energy-Efficient Exposed Datapath Architecture With a RISC-V Instruction Set Mode” was published by researchers at Tampere University. “Transport triggered architectures ...
There are varieties of embedded systems in the world, it’s a big challenge to optimized the instruction sets of SoCs according to different systems’ working environments. The idea of dynamic ...
If instruction sets didn't matter, processors would be cheaper and designers would have more options. That's why one startup's efforts are so intriguing. Every microprocessor is different, in part ...
The registers inside the CPU, the machine code instruction set, and the ways in which the instructions interact with the registers and status flags are all intertwined. As you may recall, one of my ...
