IBM has recently introduced their
new line of products, the fastest processor
in the world
made their latest z196. The chip is
designed for the fastest supercomputer and has a
clock speed of 5.2GHz.
Unfortunately it we would not be able to buy this product, because it's not just hundreds of
dollars, but millions of dollars to get this processor.
IBM z196 uses
CISC technology in
architecture in which there are 1.4 billion transistors on a chip the size of
512 mm square.
Has more than 69
Core with the ability to process 50 million
instructions in 1 second. Supports up to 3TB of
memory using Memory
raim technology. The
chip is fabricated by using technology 45-nm
PD SOI. The chip
also delivers super fast 64KB L1 instruction cache, 128KB
of L1 data cache, as well as private 1.5MB
L2 cache for each
core.
In addition, features co-processors can
be used to perform
cryptographic operations. In addition,
a 4-node system
that will use this
chip also comes with
19.5MB of SRAM for
private L1 cache,
144 MB for
private L2 cache,
576MB eDRAM for
L3 cache, and
the latter 768MB eDRAM
cache for level-4.
These chips use at least 1079 instructions are slightly
different, in which 75 instructions can be used to millicode, 219
used for the
execution of millicode, and
an additional 24 as a function of conditional execution on millicode.
