Development of floating point and media unit 8-way VLIW microprocessor for embedded application

摘要

8-way VLIW microprocessor based on improved VLIW architecture is developed for embedded application. This processor equips execution units of floating-point calculation, performed 2.1GFLOPS, and media operations, performed 12.8GOPS. In order to fulfill these performances, our microprocessor is fabricated with 0.1111 m CMOS process technology. We use late clock technique, and design a part of our microprocessor by the custom design..
