The incredible evolution of the MIPS architectureWith Imagination Blog - Alexandru VoicaOct. 14, 2014 |
MIPS is the shining star of the highly efficient, low power CPU design principles that have shaped the mobile and embedded industry for nearly three decades. In this article, I will try to offer you a quick overview of how the MIPS architecture evolved from its early beginnings in the Stanford University computer science labs to the present day.
You can now find MIPS-based processors that scale from tiny microcontrollers used in embedded systems all the way to many-core comms processors used in data centers.
The video below goes back to the roots of MIPS and shows how the architecture evolved over time; read on after the break to find out about the major milestones that have defined our processor technology.
