Implementation of a third-generation 1.1GHz 64b microprocessor

A third-generation 1.1 GHz 64b microprocessor provides 1 MB on-chip L2$, 4GB/s off chip memory bandwidth and a 200MHz JBUS interface that supports 1 to 4 processors. The 90M transistor chip is implemented in a 7-level metal copper 0.13/spl mu/m CMOS process and dissipates 53W at 1.3V and 1.1GHz.
