Presented at: IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC 2008), on Febuary 3-7, 2008 at San Francisco, CA.

Abstract: A 65nm third-generation chip-multithreading SPARC® processor operates at 2.3GHz and is targeted for high-performance servers. It is optimized for both single- and multithreaded applications. Circuit innovations in memory arrays, register files, and floating point hardware boost performance and circuit robustness with minimum area overhead.
