Tim Re: <...You could either combine it with other information and get a good idea of how a chip was going to be designed or you could look at the patents and figure how how you would design a chip using those technologies...> Could you look at the guys previous chip design? It seems a fairly straight line from: sibyte.com SANTA CLARA, Calif., October 9, 2000 - SiByte, Inc., a leading communication IC start-up, will announce Mercurian, a new generation of ultra fast, highly integrated multiprocessor solutions for networking and communications equipment, at the Microprocessor Forum in San Jose this week. SiByte Corporate Fellow, Jim Keller, will provide details on the first Mercurian processor, the SB-1250, at the conference on Tuesday, October 10th. Through their merger with Broadcom to: edtneurope.com Broadcom chip integrates two CPU cores, cache, I/O (07/18/01, 3:52 p.m. EDT) The BCM1250 multiprocessor platform, first product in the company's SiByte family, scales up to 1 gigahertz, with twice the memory and input/output bandwidth of competitive products, according to the company. It integrates two 64-bit MIPS CPU cores, a large cache memory, and input/output peripherals onto a single 60-million-transistor silicon chip. Heart of the processor is the ZBbus, a 256-bit wide system bus that delivers up to 100 gigabits per second of on-chip bus bandwidth and maintains complete data and I/O coherence throughout the system. Sample pricing for BCM1250 silicon is $649 each. It is currently scheduled to enter production in the fourth quarter. ================== broadcom.com provides their 'Product Brief'.. ============================ And make allowances for different usages and timing. tgptndr
