PROCESSEUR ALPHA 21164 KP21164-600CN1 EN FRANCE

The 21164 microprocessor is a superscalar pipelined processor manufactured using 0.35-μm CMOS technology. It is packaged in a 499-pin IPGA carrier and has remov-able application-specific heat sinks. A number of configuration options allow its use in a range of system designs ranging from extremely simple uniprocessor systems with minimum component count to high-performance multiprocessor systems with very high cache and memory bandwidth.The 21164 can issue four Alpha instructions in a single cycle, thereby minimizing the average cycles per instruction (CPI). A number of low-latency and/or high- throughput features in the instruction issue unit and the onchip components of the memory subsystem further reduce the average CPI.The 21164 and associated PALcode implements IEEE single-precision and double-precision, VAX F_floating and G_floating data types, and supports longword (32-bit) and quadword (64-bit) integers. Byte (8-bit) and word (16-bit) support is pro-vided by byte-manipulation instructions. Limited hardware support is provided for the VAX D_floating data type. Partial hardware implementation is provided for the architecturally optional FETCH and FETCH_M instructions. https://www.tldp.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/translations/fr/html-1page/Alpha-HOWTO.html http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/academic/class/15740-f03/public/doc/alpha-21164-hw-ref-manual.pdf http://www.chipdb.org/img-samsung-alpha-21164-kp21164-600cn1-5813.htm
