Abstract

The architecture and design of the 驴VP, a single-chip vector coprocessor developed to meet the needs of high-performance processors, are described. The 驴VP is a supercomputer component implemented on a single large-scale-integrated (LSI) CMOS chip. With 206 MFLOPS single-precision and 106-MFLOPS double-precision performance at 50 MHz, the 驴VP offers a rate almost equivalent to that typical minisupercomputers.
