Simpler, faster, lower-power hardware with a free, open, simple instruction set architecture? While it sounds too good to be true, efforts are underway to do just that with RISC-V, the instruction-set ...
ARM has updated its Thumb 16-bit microprocessor instruction set, allowing it to be used by operating systems and interrupts. Extra instructions in Thumb-2 can also be mixed with standard 32-bit ...
ARM9T Core The ARM9T family defines a set of RISC cores that are optimized to minimize cost and power dissipation. The family builds around the ARM9 Thumb architecture, a full ARM ISA also capable of ...
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. today announced the first facet of a plan to extend its microprocessor instruction set in order to make it easier for software developers to exploit the power of multicore ...
Most processors run a single instruction set. But the ARM1026EJ-S implements four in hardware, including 32-bit ARM instructions, 16-bit ARM Thumb instructions, ARM DSP instructions, and Java ...
Intel recently made an unprecedented public challenge to Microsoft and Qualcomm that basically told the latter two companies: if you ship an x86 instruction set architecture (ISA) emulator, we’re ...
We all think of the CPU as the "brains" of a computer, but what does that actually mean? What is going on inside with the billions of transistors that make your computer work? In this four-part series ...
Introduced in 1998, 3DNow! was AMD's answer to the growing multimedia demands being placed on the K6-2 silicon of the day. Today AMD has announced that the instruction set is being deprecated. AMD ...
