Abstract :
A 24-bit microprogrammed processor with 200 ns instruction cycle time has been realized as an experimental special purpose VLSI chip. The design was based on a general cell library and a set of advanced CAD tools. The technology used is a 3 /spl mu/m silicon gate, n-channel, single metallization MYMOS process. The chip integrates 9400 gate functions plus a 256/spl times/27 bit static RAM on 78.5 mm/SUP 2/.
