ARC International has developed an instruction set architecture (ISA) that allows mixing of 16 and 32-bit instructions on its 32-bit user-configurable processor. This could cut memory requirements on ...

AndesCore™ A46MP(V) 32-bit multicore CPU IP is an 8-stage superscalar processor with Vector Processing Unit (VPU) based on AndeStar™ V5 architecture and Andes Matrix Multiply (AMM) extension. ... The ...

Less memory than this and you're fine with 32-bit, but any more memory and you need a 64-bit OS to make advantage of it. The confusion arises because people take the term memory to mean RAM, ...

ARM today introduced its Thumb-2 core technology, a new instruction set architecture (ISA) that falls between the ARM 32-bit ISA and the Thumb ISA, a 16-bit instruction format. Thumb-2, released at ...

Despite having support for 64-bit operating systems, almost every new desktop PC sold today is shipped with a 32-bit OS. But over the next few years this will change. The change won't come about ...

That's 32 data bits/lines.<P>The latest PCI spec provides for 64 bit wide data paths, a 64-bit bus.<P>Most busses have a clock rate, like 8 MHz, or 33 MHz, or 66 MHz. The Front-Side buses have 100 ...

Here’s the key difference: 32-bit processors are perfectly capable of handling a limited amount of RAM (in Windows, 4GB or less), and 64-bit processors can utilize much more.

32-bit processors and operating systems, in theory, can access up to 4GB of memory. So how come Qasim Zaib's PC, with 4GB installed, only sees 3GB?
