Analysis of ARM, X86, MIPS designs shows no difference Bernard Cole, Editor of the EE Times' Microcontroller and Printed Circuit Board Designlines EETimes (6/30/2015 06:07 PM EDT) A new study ...

Many of the differences between RISC-V, ARM, and x86 microprocessors are subtle and relate to how memory is addressed, branches are executed, exceptions are handled, and so on. This article will ...

That said, the lines between RISC and CISC are a little blurrier these days, with each borrowing ideas from one other and a wide range of CPU cores built on architecture variations.

I was just wanting to know if anyone can tell me if the new athlon mp and xp's are risc chips or if they went to cisc. I know the older AMD chips were all RISC, but not sure of the newer ones ...

The ARM-based M series is a RISC design rather than Intel's x86 CISC architecture. RISC circuits use less complex instructions, run cooler and thus save battery, which is why an ARM chip is used ...

Intel, which has made billions from its closed-source, complex instruction set computer (CISC) x86 processors, is joining forces with RISC-V, the open-source reduced instruction set computer (RISC ...

$3.4 billion. That is the amount Apple will save every year from now onwards as it transitions to its silicon chips and moves away from Intel. Factor in the better performance, more battery life as ...

Do Apple's new Mac chips mean ARM has won? Apple is dropping Intel and the x86 architecture in favor of ARM and RISC.

Besides, Intel, based on complex instruction set computer (CISC) architecture, is reaching the end of its computing capability. As communication between different parts of a computer gets more ...

Even more asthonishing is that RISC to CISC (and vice versa) translation would not result in a performance hit. <P>In other words not only can this software translate binary code on the fly, but ...
