MIPS Designer, Bits (32 → 64) Introduced 1985; 32 years ago ( 1985) Version MIPS32/64 Release 6 (2014) Type Register-Register Fixed Compare and branch Page size 4 KB Extensions, Open No 32 32 MIPS (an acronym for Microprocessor without Interlocked Pipeline Stages) is a (RISC) (ISA): A-1: 19 developed by (formerly MIPS Computer Systems).

The early MIPS architectures were 32-bit, with 64-bit versions added later. There are multiple versions of MIPS: including MIPS I, II, III, IV, and V; as well as five releases of MIPS32/64 (for 32- and 64-bit implementations, respectively). As of April 2017, the current version is MIPS32/64 Release 6.

MIPS32/64 primarily differs from MIPS I–V by defining the privileged kernel mode System Control Coprocessor in addition to the user mode architecture. Several optional extensions are also available, including which is a simple set of dedicated to common 3D tasks, (MaDMaX) which is a more extensive integer instruction set using the 64-bit floating-point registers, MIPS16e which adds to make programs take up less room, and MIPS MT, which adds capability. Courses in universities and technical schools often study the MIPS architecture.

The architecture greatly influenced later RISC architectures such as. As of April 2017, MIPS processors are used in such as and. Originally, MIPS was designed for general-purpose computing, and during the 1980s and 1990s, MIPS processors for,, and computers were used by many companies such as,,,,,,, and. Historically, such as the,, and use MIPS processors. MIPS processors also used to be popular in during the 1990s, but all such systems have dropped off the list. These uses were complemented by embedded applications at first, but during the 1990s, MIPS became a major presence in the embedded processor market, and by the 2000s, most MIPS processors were for these applications.

In the mid- to late-1990s, it was estimated that one in three RISC microprocessors produced was a MIPS processor. MIPS is a modular architecture supporting up to four (CP0/1/2/3). In MIPS terminology, CP0 is the System Control Coprocessor (an essential part of the processor that is implementation-defined in MIPS I–V), CP1 is an optional (FPU) and CP2/3 are optional implementation-defined coprocessors (MIPS III removed CP3 and reused its opcodes for other purposes). For example, in the video game console, CP2 is the (GTE), which accelerates the processing of geometry in 3D computer graphics.

Both MIPS and the R2000 were introduced together in 1985. [ ] When MIPS II was introduced, MIPS was renamed MIPS I to distinguish it from the new version.: 32 MIPS is a (also known as a register-register architecture); except for the used to access, all instructions operate on the registers. Registers [ ] MIPS I has thirty-two 32-bit general-purpose registers. Register $0 is hardwired to zero and writes to it are discarded.

Register $31 is the link register. For integer multiplication and division instructions, which run asynchronously from other instructions, a pair of 32-bit registers, HI and LO, are provided. There is a small set of instructions for copying data between the general-purpose registers and the HI/LO registers. The program counter has 32 bits. The two low-order bits always contain zero since MIPS I instructions are 32 bits long and are aligned to their natural word boundaries. Instruction formats [ ] Instructions are divided into three types: R, I and J.

Every instruction starts with a 6-bit opcode. Cond ) goto PC + 4 + 100; PC relative branch if not condition MIPS II [ ] MIPS II removed the load delay slot: 41 and added several sets of instructions.

For shared-memory multiprocessing, the Synchronize Shared Memory, Load Linked Word, and Store Conditional Word instructions were added. A set of Trap-on-Condition instructions were added. These instructions caused an exception if the evaluated condition is true.

All existing branch instructions were given branch-likely versions that executed the instruction in the branch delay slot only if the branch is taken.: 40 These instructions improve performance in certain cases by allowing useful instructions to fill the branch delay slot.: 212 Doubleword load and store instructions for COP1–3 were added. Consistent with other memory access instructions, these loads and stores required the doubleword to be naturally aligned. The instruction set for the floating point coprocessor also had several instructions added to it. An IEEE 754-compliant floating-point square root instruction was added. It supported both single- and double-precision operands. A set of instructions that converted single- and double-precision floating-point numbers to 32-bit words were added.

These complemented the existing conversion instructions by allowing the IEEE rounding mode to be specified by the instruction instead of the Floating Point Control and Status Register. ' microprocessor (1989) is the first MIPS II implementation.: 8 Designed for servers, the R6000 was fabricated and sold by, but was a commercial failure. Main article: Simulators [ ] Open Virtual Platforms (OVP) includes the freely available for non-commercial use simulator, a library of models of processors, peripherals and platforms, and APIs which enable users to develop their own models. The models in the library are open source, written in C, and include the MIPS 4K, 24K, 34K, 74K, 1004K, 1074K, M14K, microAptiv, interAptiv, proAptiv 32 bit cores and the MIPS 64bit 5K range of cores. These models are created and maintained by Imperas and in partnership with MIPS Technologies have been tested and assigned the MIPS-Verified (tm) mark. Sample MIPS-based platforms include both bare metal environments and platforms for booting unmodified Linux binary images. These platforms–emulators are available as source or binaries and are fast, free for non-commercial usage, and are easy to use.

Is developed and maintained by and is very fast (hundreds of million of instructions per second), and built to handle multicore homogeneous and heterogeneous architectures and systems. There is a freely available MIPS32 simulator (earlier versions simulated only the R2000/R3000) called for use in education.

EduMIPS64 is a GPL graphical cross-platform MIPS64 CPU simulator, written in Java/Swing. It supports a wide subset of the MIPS64 ISA and allows the user to graphically see what happens in the pipeline when an assembly program is run by the CPU. It has educational purposes and is used in some [ ] computer architecture courses in universities around the world. MARS is another GUI-based MIPS emulator designed for use in education, specifically for use with Hennessy's Computer Organization and Design. WebMIPS is a browser-based MIPS simulator with visual representation of a generic, pipelined processor. This simulator is quite useful for register tracking during step by step execution. More advanced free emulators are available from the (formerly known as the mips64emul project) and projects.

These emulate the various MIPS III and IV microprocessors in addition to entire computer systems which use them. Commercial simulators are available especially for the embedded use of MIPS processors, for example Wind River (MIPS 4Kc and 5Kc, PMC RM9000, QED RM7000, Broadcom/Netlogic ec4400, Octeon I), (all MIPS32 and MIPS64 cores), VaST Systems (R3000, R4000), and (the MIPS4KE, MIPS24K, MIPS25Kf and MIPS34K). WepSIM is a browser-based simulator where a subset of MIPS instructions are micro-programmed. This simulator is very useful in order to learn how a CPU works (microprogramming, MIPS rutines, traps, interruptions, system calls, etc.).
