ARM11 MPCore Provides Existing Software Portability Across Single-CPU and Multi-CPU Designs

The ARM11 MPCore synthesizable processor implements the ARM11 microarchitecture and can be configured to contain between one and four processors delivering up to an aggregate 2600 Dhrystone MIPS of performance. The ARM11 MPCore processor provides enhanced memory throughput of 1.3 Gbytes/sec from a single CPU, and a solution that delivers greater performance at lower frequencies than comparable single processor designs, offering significant cost savings to system designers, while maintaining full compatibility with existing EDA tools and flows. It also simplifies otherwise complex multiprocessor design, reducing time-to-market and total design cost.
