Abstract :
A Reduced Instruction Set Computer using direct hardware instruction decode and 3-stage pipelined execution will be described. At an operating frequency of 30MHz, a 120Mbytes/s transfer rate on an external cache/coprocessor interface is achieved. NMOS technology is used to implement 115K transistors on an 8.4mm square chip.
