Advanced 8-bit microprocessor

The DZ80 is an , 8-bit microprocessor, with 208 bits of user-accessible registers.

Overview

The DZ80 is an advanced, 8-bit microprocessor, with 208 bits of user-accessible registers. It is composed of six general purpose registers, which can be used individually, as either 8-bit or 16-bit register pairs. Additionally, DZ80 supports two sets of accumulator and flag registers. The DZ80 contains also Stack Pointer, program Counter, two index registers, a REFRESH register and an INTERRUPT register. All output signals are fully decoded and timed, to control standard memory or peripheral circuits. The DZ80 is supported by a wide range of peripherals.
DZ80 is fully customizable - it is delivered in the exact configuration, to meet user's requirements. There is no need to pay extra, for unused features and wasted silicon.
It includes fully automated testbench with complete set of tests, allowing easy package validation, at each stage of SoC design flow.

Announcing Arm AGI CPU: The silicon foundation for the agentic AI cloud era

For the first time in our more than 35-year history, Arm is delivering its own silicon products – extending the Arm Neoverse platform beyond IP and Arm Compute Subsystems (CSS) to give customers greater choice in how they deploy Arm compute – from building custom silicon to integrating platform-level solutions or deploying Arm-designed processors.

Encarsia: Evaluating CPU Fuzzers via Automatic Bug Injection

Hardware fuzzing has recently gained momentum with many discovered bugs in open-source RISC-V CPU designs. Comparing the effectiveness of different hardware fuzzers, however, remains a challenge: each fuzzer optimizes for a different metric and is demonstrated on different CPU designs.

Pie: Pooling CPU Memory for LLM Inference

Pie maintains low computation latency, high throughput, and high elasticity. Our experimental evaluation demonstrates that Pie achieves optimal swapping policy during cache warmup and effectively balances increased memory capacity with negligible impact on computation. With its extended capacity, Pie outperforms vLLM by up to 1.9X in throughput and 2X in latency. Additionally, Pie can reduce GPU memory usage by up to 1.67X while maintaining the same performance. Compared to FlexGen, an offline profiling-based swapping solution, Pie achieves magnitudes lower latency and 9.4X higher throughput.
