Abstract

A 32-bit 162 MHz/215 MHz custom VLSI ARM microprocessor is described. The chip contains two 16 Kbyte, 32-way set associative caches for instructions and data. The 2.1 M transistor chip is fabricated in a 2.0 V, 0.35 /spl mu/m, 3-layer metal CMOS process. It dissipates 0.5 W at 162 MHz/1.5 V and 1.1 W at 215 MHz/2.0 V.
