Abstract
The MOVE project at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the TU Delft aims at designing and building high-performance processors by means of a new class of architectures called transport triggered architectures. Transport triggered architectures are programmed by specifying data transports instead of operations; their flexibility makes them particular suited for application specific purposes. In order to evaluate the specific design and implementation tradeoffs, an instance of a transport triggered architecture, called MOVE32INT, has been designed and implemented in a 1.6 (minimum gate length) CMOS Sea of Gates (SoG) technology at the Computer Architecture Department. The SoG pattern used for this implementation, and the tools for generating layout on this SoG, are developed at the Electronics Department. MOVE32INT is a 80 MHz, 32 bit general purpose integer pipelined processor, containing several function units which operate concurrently. To keep these function units busy it is ...
