Abstract

This microprocessor explores an architectural solution to scalability problems in scalar operand networks. The 0.15μm 6M process, 331mm² research prototype issues 16 unique instructions per cycle and uses an on-chip point-to-point scalar operand network to transfer operands among distributed functional units.
