>Dear Jaap van Ganswijk,

>Here is the brief information about our processor:
>
>NeuroMatrix(R) NM6403 is a high performance dual-core microprocessor
>with super scalar architecture. The architecture includes two main
>units: 32-bit RISC Core and 64-bit VECTOR co-processor to support vector
>operations with elements of variable bit length (patent pending).
>There are two identical programmable interfaces to work with any memory
>types as well as two communication ports hardware compatible with
>TI DSP TMS320C4x which permit to build multi-processor systems.
>
>Performance:
>- scalar operations:
> 50 MIPS;
> 200 MOPS for 32 bit data;
>- vector operations:
> from 50 to 50.000+ MMAC (million multiplication and
> accumulation per second);
>- I/O and interfaces:
> two programmable external memory 64 bit interfaces have
> up to 800 MB/sec. throughput;
> I/O communication ports up to 20MB/sec. throughput each.
>
>Technical Parameters:
>- clock frequency - 50 MHz (20ns instruction cycle time);
>- Technology used CMOS 0.5um.;
>- 256BGA package;
>- low voltage operation, from 3.0 V to 3.6 V;
>- power consumption @50MHz about 1.3W;
>- temperature range: -60...+85 C.
>
>We provide complete SDK, 2CPU Evaluation Board and demo software.
