[RetroBytes] nicely presents the curious history of the SPARC processor architecture. SPARC, short for Scalable Processor Architecture, defined some of the most commercially successful RISC ...

The workstation crowd used Sun computers. Sun used the Sparc processor, and the machine had specs that are laughable now but were enviable in their day. [RetroBytes] shows off Sun’s final entry ...

The LEON5 is a synthesizable VHDL model of a 32-bit processor compliant with the SPARC V8 architecture. The model is highly configurable and suitable for system-on-chip (SOC) designs. LEON5 provides ...

"It is a very large-scale computer ... more powerful Sparc M5 hardware. "Everything is a common architecture -- we expect customers to mix and match [the T5 and M5] across their enterprises ...

The LEON4 processor core is a synthesizable VHDL model of a 32-bit processor compliant with the SPARC V8 architecture. The core is highly configurable and particularly suitable for high performance ...
