Presentation:

THE PSC1000 JAVA/FORTH MICROPROCESSOR
Brad Rodriguez, Ph.D.

The Patriot Scientific PSC1000 microprocessor is a novel 32-bit RISC
processor optimized to execute stack-based languages, such as Java,
Forth, Postscript, and even C and C++. The PSC1000 includes a
dual-stack "ShBoom" processor optimized to execute stack-based
languages, such as Java, Forth, Postscript, and even C and C++.
The PSC1000 includes a dual-stack "ShBoom" microprocessor, an
independent I/O processor, and a wealth of on-chip I/O.
The processor achieves single-cycle execution and 100 MIPS peak
performance with only 138,000 transistors, through a starkly simple
CPU design -- without pipelines, parallel execution units, or other
CPU accelerators. Intended for low-power, low-cost systems, its power
consumption is only 165 milliwatts at 100 MHz, giving it perhaps the
most "MIPS per milliwatt" of any commercial microprocessor.

Brad Rodriguez has been working with the PSC1000 for several months,
and will describe the basic architecture and instruction set of the
CPU, with a brief mention of its use in embedded systems. This talk
should be of interest to CPU designers, Java programmers, and Forth
programmers.

It's hard for me to beleive that Patriot has just been "futzing" around w/this chip for the past few years... someone has got to be interested in this chip...perhaps a Linux user?????
