Abstract :
A 533 MHz 2.5 W 2132 MIPS 12.8 GOPS 2.1 GFLOPS 8-way VLIW embedded multimedia processor occupies a 7.8/spl times/7.8 mm/sup 2/ die in a 7-layer metal 0.11 /spl mu/m CMOS at 1.2 V. VLIW, SIMD, dynamic branch prediction, non-aligned dual load/store mechanism and a crosstalk-aware design flow contribute to performance.
