RMI XLR PROCESSOR FAMILY

The XLR700 series of Thread Processors consists of the XLR732 and XLR716 processors. The XLR732 includes 32 threads over 8 MIPS64® compatible cores, while the XLR716 supports 16 threads on 4 MIPS64 cores. This family integrates dual 10Gbps ports making it suitable for dense network connectivity using aggregation chips, connection to a high bandwidth back planes, connecting multiple XLR processors or 10G Ethernet interfaces. In addition, the XLR700 series supports an LA-1 bus for the inclusion of customer specific IP or 800MHz quad-data rate SRAM for low-latency data accesses.


FEATURES:

Up to 1.5GHz operation

32 or 16 processing threads across 8 or 4 MIPS64 cores, respectively

Two 10Gbps ports configurable as 10G Ethernet or SPI-4.2

1MB or 2MB Banked Level-2 cache memory

800MHz QDR SRAM/LA-1 bus

Four 800MHz 36-bit DDR1/DDR2/RLD2 Memory Controllers

Four Gigabit Ethernet (RGMII) interfaces

Standard I/O including PCI-X, Hypertransport and GPIO

1605 BGA package



Products:

XLR716 and XLR732 Processors

Mal schaun, was draus wird ... :wink:



Hintergrund: :wink:
Raza Microelectronics was founded by Atiq Raza, who is also the founder, chairman and CEO of Foundries Holdings, Inc. (formerly Raza Foundries). Previously, Mr. Raza was President and COO of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). At AMD, . Raza oversaw the development of AMD's processor roadmap and brought the AMD-K6 and Athlon family of processor products to the market. Before that, he headed NexGen, which was acquired by AMD in January 1996.
In August 2003, Raza Microelectronics acquired SandCraft, which designed high-performance MIPS64 microprocessors for the communications, network storage and office automation markets.

Was ist daran neu?

Die haben im Mai/Juni ihre Chips der Öffentlichkeit angekündigt, so gesehen waren sie früher mit 8 Kernen auf dem Markt, wie Sun mit dem Niagara. Wobei RMI (http://www.orthy.de/orthy/modules.php?name=Encyclopedia&op=content&tid=340) [orthy.de] sogar noch deutlich höher integriert ist, mit noch leistungsfähigeren CPU-Einzelkernen.

PS: Wurde mal Zeit dass die Meldung mal weitere Verbreitung findet ;) THX

Allzuviel anklang bzw. Käufer wird die CPU aber IMO net finden ...

Hmm, warum erinnert mich das Teil nur so an den Niagara Prozessor von Sun? http://www.forum-3dcenter.org/vbulletin/images/3dc/smilies/ugly/uglygruebel.gif

Weil die ENtwicklung in die gleiche Richtung geht?
