TSMC delivers hard core processors for MIPS fans
MIPS Technologies has announced the availability of "hard core" versions of its MIPS32 4Kc and 4Km 32bit processor cores.
The Core-Optimised IP Kits target the MIPS32 24K, 24KE and 34K families of processor cores for manufacture on TSMC's 90nm G process.
The 24K and 24KE processor core families can achieve clock frequencies of 660 MHz, using only nominal threshold transistors when implemented with the Core-optimised IP Kits.
"With the introduction of new Core-Optimised IP Kits for the 90nm G process, our customers can further benefit from our continued relationship with Virage Logic and the combined expertise of two industry leaders," said Jack Browne, vice president of marketing at MIPS Technologies.
"SoC designers can now utilise this added performance more efficiently to accelerate their time-to-market and generate a significant competitive advantage".
"Virage Logic has long been a trusted IP partner that customers turn to for highly differentiated IP that is optimised for performance and reliability," said Jim Ensell, senior vice president of marketing and business development at Virage Logic.
"We're delighted that our collaborative efforts with MIPS Technologies continue to provide our mutual customers with integrated solutions that help them meet their high performance system design requirements".
