This paper presents an instruction set simulator of a 32-bit CPU and explains its use in embedded software development. Interaction of the ISS with transaction level model of a complex peripheral ...

Direct replacement of 32-bit instructions with new 16-bit instructions provides an immediate code density benefit, which can be realized at an individual instruction level throughout the application.

Haswell instruction set and front-end Haswell introduces four families of new instructions. The first is AVX2, which is a 256-bit extension of existing integer SIMD.

The transistor CPU uses only one instruction and operates on one bit at a time. Naturally, this leads to a small data path, which is a good thing if you’re only using discrete transistors.

The chip titan proposed last year that it was about time to introduce a slimmed-down, 64-bit-only version of the x86 architecture, which Intel created alongside the famous 8086 chip back in the ...

The STM32C0, ST’s most affordable STM32-based series to date, brings 32-bit processing to cost-sensitive applications that previously relied on 8-bit MCUs. Comprising over a dozen models, the devices ...

Not all smartphones need 64-bit support or the new ARMv8 instruction set, though, and for those handsets Qualcomm will soon begin offering the new entry-level Snapdragon 210.
