A high performance dual-core microprocessor

Published: 8 June 1999 y., Tuesday
MOSCOW, Russia, June 1, 1999 - Research Center "Module", the developer and owner of patented NeuroMatrix® DSP architecture has just gained the first lot of NeuroMatrix® M6403 DSP processors manufactured at the Samsung Semiconductor fab.The microprocessor research and development project began in 1996 with NeuroMatrix® unique architecture elaboration. The NeuroMatrix® architecture combines the features of both VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) and SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) modern architectures. Designing, research and development activity of highly qualified engineers and scientists, with the use of the most modern design tools such as CADENCE and 0.5um CMOS technology resulted in 1998, when RC "Module" received the samples of first Russian NeuroMatrix® NM6403 DSP. NeuroMatrix® NM6403 is a high performance dual-core microprocessor with a DSP-oriented RISC architecture. The architecture includes two main units: 32-bit RISC Core and 64-bit VECTOR coprocessor to support vector operations with elements of variable bit length. There are two identical programmable interfaces to work with any memory types as well as two communication ports hardware compatible with TI DSP TMS320C4x which permit to build multi-processor systems. In compliance with EDN-Access, NM6403 may be classified as 64-bit DSP processor based on the NeuroMatrix® architecture. Its_ technical specifications allow NM6403 to compete on a World market as the best DSP processor with optimal price-performance ratio.
