In the race for the greatest quantity of core in one processor was included the young Israeli company : plurality. Recently it begin the delivery of its 64- nuclear processor hyperCore models. The start of the mass production for such device , the first in the hyperCore architecture line, is planned for the third quarter of this year.
The first version of processor was been on FPGA altera stratix II -180 and were included 16 32-bit RISC- cores, controlled by high-speed synchronizer. Device included general cache with the capacity of 4 Mbit and (2 Mbit) cache commands , four 32-bit multipliers and also four 64-bit dividers.
The first processor series version will be produced on the base of 90 nm ASIC- solution from company eASIC - Nextreme. They communicates that 64 cores hyperCore will work at the clock frequency of 150 MHz.
the FPGA- models Of hyperCore are supplied in the form of card with interfaces PCI PCIe, produced by giDEL (series PROC boards). This card include the configured modules, such as, for example, graphic adapter, ethernet controller , ports of input-output.
Plurality asserts that the architecture Of hyperCore is one of most the advanced. In confirmation the company already demonstrated the virtual 256- core model of this processor.
Plurality proposes to developers the tool kit for creation , oriented for parallel calculations. It promises, that this code will not require optimization in the future, when the quantity of core hyperCore increases. Related Products :
