The development of caches and caching is one of the most significant events in the history of computing. Virtually every modern CPU core from ultra-low power chips like the ARM Cortex-A5 to the ...

I was checking out the specs at intel.com and noticed that the P4 has something called "12K µops L1 Execution Trace Cache" which is "8KB L1 data cache" <BR>The Pentium III has 32K L1 Cache (16K for ...

A processor cache is an area of high-speed memory that stores information near the processor. This helps make the processing of common instructions efficient and therefore speeds up computation time.

Some design teams creating system-on-chip (SoC) devices are fortunate to work with the latest and greatest technology nodes coupled with a largely unconstrained budget for acquiring intellectual ...

Based on the vendor’s TMS320C64x+ core, the 900-MHz TMS320C6452 DSP (digital-signal processor) delivers twice the L1 cache memory and 40% more L2 cache than the C6415T. The code-compatible DSP ...
