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 ...

Major Chinese chip designer Loongson unveiled LoongArch, its new generation, self-developed computer instruction set, The Xinhua News Agency reports. The Loongson operation system, based on the new ...

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 ...

An open standard called RISC-V is rewriting the economics of chip design and shaking up the tech sector’s power dynamics. RISC-V is one of MIT Technology Review’s 10 Breakthrough Technologies of 2023.

Major Chinese chip designer Loongson on Thursday unveiled LoongArch, its new generation, self-developed computer instruction set. The Loongson operation system, based on the new instruction set, has ...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a version of the 8051 microcontroller, one of the most commercially used microcontrollers in FPGA with reconfigurable instruction set.

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 ...

Why it matters: Intel is gearing up for what the company considers the "next major step" in the evolution of the original x86 instruction set architecture (ISA). The Santa Clara corporation is ...

It's a bit strange to hear that Arm, whose chip designs and computer instruction set architecture or ISA has been quickly overtaking the computing world, might soon be sold off despite its growing ...
