Is MIPS Poised to Take the RISC-V World by Storm?

Sometimes the world can be a funny old place. Take computer companies, for example. Some (like IBM) seem to have been around forever and they also seem destined to stay around forever. Others flicker in and out of existence so quickly that most folks are never even aware they existed in the first place. Still others pop up and down as if they were engaged in a deranged game of corporate Whac-A-Mole.

Imperas Collaborates with MIPS and Ashling to Accelerate RISC-V Application Software Development from SoC Concept to Deployment

The MIPS flexible compute solutions are now supported with Imperas reference models and Ashling SDK tools, ready for the complete SoC design phase and end user development.

Imperas Software Ltd., the leader in RISC-V models and simulation solutions, today announced with MIPS and Ashling a new 3-way collaboration to support developers across all aspects of RISC-V software development for advanced processor applications. Based on the Imperas reference models for the MIPS eVocore P8700 RISC-V Multiprocessor, together with Ashling’s RiscFree™ SDK tools, this collaboration … Read More →

MIPS Rolls Out Its First RISC-V Processor Core – It’s a Big ‘Un

by Steven Leibson

Even though the company had telegraphed its big move, MIPS’s adoption of the RISC-V ISA for its future processor cores hit me like a ton of bricks. MIPS is one of the heroes of the early RISC revolution, and the company has gone through a lot of ups and downs. Big ups. Big downs. Jim … Read More →

MIPS selects Imperas Reference Models for RISC-V Processor Verification

Imperas RISC-V golden reference models and Verification IP used for functional RISC-V Processor Verification and Architectural Compatibility Testing

Oxford, United Kingdom, November 29th, 2021 — Imperas Software Ltd., the leader in RISC-V simulation solutions, today announced with MIPS, Inc., the processor technology company focused on the commercialization of RISC-based processor architectures and IP cores, the continuation and extension to the long-standing relationship with simulation and verification support for RISC-V. Since 2010, MIPS has partnered with Imperas … Read More →

Wait, What? MIPS Becomes RISC-V

Classic CPU Company Exits Bankruptcy, Throws in the Towel

by Jim Turley

What a long, strange trip it’s been. MIPS Technologies no longer designs MIPS processors. Instead, it’s joined the RISC-V camp, abandoning its eponymous architecture for one that has strong historical and technical ties. The move apparently heralds the end of the road for MIPS as a CPU family, and a further (slight) diminution in the … Read More →

Mipsology Brings “Zero Effort” Inference

FPGA-based AI Acceleration Made Easy

by Kevin Morris

Like the proverbial carrot-on-a-stick, FPGA-based acceleration has been right in front of our noses, just out of reach, for the better part of three decades. We move closer, and the prize moves farther away. Every few years, we feel some tangible progress, and perhaps cut the distance in half, but asymptotes can be unfriendly bedfellows. … Read More →

Loose Lips Sink MIPS

Microprocessor Licensing Moves to China

by Jim Turley

“What a long, strange trip it’s been.” – Grateful Dead If you think designing a microprocessor is complicated, try following its ownership saga. The tangled trail of licensing rights, ownership, royalties, and politics surrounding the MIPS microprocessor family took another weird turn last week, with the result that MIPS is now in Chinese hands. Sort … Read More →

MIPS Turns Another Corner

New Ownership and Business Models see MIPS go Open-Source

by Jim Turley

“You can always tell an engineer. But you can’t tell him much.” — anonymous If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. At first blush, that would appear to be the strategy underlying Wave Computing’s recent move to open-source the MIPS microprocessor architecture, which it just acquired in June. But there’s a bit more to it … Read More →

Wave Computing® Launches the MIPS Open Initiative To Accelerate Innovation for the Renowned MIPS® Architecture

New Initiative Will Expand Adoption of MIPS by the Global Semiconductor Industry By Providing a Proven, Industry-Standard and Patent Protected RISC Architecture for Free

CAMPBELL, Calif., December 17, 2018 – Wave Computing®, the Silicon Valley company that is accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) from the edge to the data center, announced it will open source its MIPS instruction set architecture (ISA) to accelerate the ability for semiconductor companies, developers and universities to adopt and innovate using MIPS for next-generation system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Under … Read More →
