Introduction: What's a "Great CPU"?
This list is not intended to be an exhaustive compilation of microprocessors, but rather a

description of designs that are either unique (such as the RCA 1802, Acorn ARM, or INMOS Transputer),

or representative designs typical of the period (such as the 6502 or 8080, 68000, and R2000). Not

necessarily the first of their kind, or the best.
A microprocessor generally means a CPU on a single silicon chip, but exceptions have been made (and

are documented) when the CPU includes particularly interesting design ideas, and is generally the

result of the microprocessor design philosophy. However, towards the more modern designs, design from

other fields overlap, and this criterion becomes rather fuzzy. In addition, parts that used to be

separate (FPU, MMU) are now usually considered part of the CPU design.

Another note on terminology - because of the muddling of the term "RISC" by marketroids, I've avoided

using those terms here to refer to architectures. And anyway, there are in fact four architecture

families, not two. So I use "memory-data" and "load-store" to refer to CISC and RISC architectures.

This file is not intended as a reference work, though all attempts (well, many attempts) have been

made to ensure its accuracy. It includes material from text books, magazine articles and papers,

authoritative descriptions and half remembered folklore from obscure sources (and net.people who I'd

like to thank for their many helpful comments). As such, it has no bibliography or list of

references.

In other words, "For entertainment use only".

Enjoy, criticize, distribute and quote from this list freely.

前言: 什么是"伟大的CPU"?

这份列表并不是想编撰一个详尽的微处理器列表,而宁愿是一个有关独特的(如RCA 1802, Acorn ARM, 或 INMOS

Transputer),或者在某段时期有代表性的(如6502 或 8080, 68000, 和 R2000),而并不需要是这类型号中的第一个,

或是最好的一个.

一个微处理器通常是指CPU或一片硅片,但也有例外的(有文档可以证明),当CPU含有特殊而有趣的设计理念,这通常是

微处理器设计理念所导致的结果,无论如何,越了解更多现代的设计,由于各个领域的交叠,这种评判标准变得越来越

模糊,另外,一些曾独立于CPU之外的部件(FPU, MMU),现在都视为CPU设计的一部分.

另一个关于术语学的补充,由于"RISC"这个术语被marketroids使用的混乱状况,我将会在提及体系结构时避免使用这

些术语,总之,现在一共有四个体系家族,而不是两个.所以,我使用"记忆-数据","载入-存取",来描述CISC和RISC这两

个体系.这个文件并不试图成为一个参考资料,虽然,对此一直在努力做到(哦,是有过许多的努力)尽量准确.这包括了

从书上的,杂志上的文章,论文上得来的材料,权威的描述和来自非正式渠道的,偶然想起的民间的传说.(以及网友们

的有用的注解,谢谢他们).同样的,那是没有参考书目和证明的.

换句话说,"娱乐为主".

请欣赏,批评,自由的分发,以及引用这篇文章.

前言: 什么是"伟大的CPU"?

这份列表并不是想编撰一个详尽的微处理器列表,而宁愿是一个有关独特的(如RCA 1802, Acorn ARM, 或 INMOS

Transputer),或者在某段时期有代表性的(如6502 或 8080, 68000, 和 R2000),而并不需要是这类型号中的第一个,

或是最好的一个.

一个微处理器通常是指CPU或一片硅片,但也有例外的(有文档可以证明),当CPU含有特殊而有趣的设计理念,这通常是

微处理器设计理念所导致的结果,无论如何,越了解更多现代的设计,由于各个领域的交叠,这种评判标准变得越来越

模糊,另外,一些曾独立于CPU之外的部件(FPU, MMU),现在都视为CPU设计的一部分.

另一个关于术语学的补充,由于"RISC"这个术语被marketroids使用的混乱状况,我将会在提及体系结构时避免使用这

些术语,总之,现在一共有四个体系家族,而不是两个.所以,我使用"记忆-数据","载入-存取",来描述CISC和RISC这两

个体系.这个文件并不试图成为一个参考资料,虽然,对此一直在努力做到(哦,是有过许多的努力)尽量准确.这包括了

从书上的,杂志上的文章,论文上得来的材料,权威的描述和来自非正式渠道的,偶然想起的民间的传说.(以及网友们

的有用的注解,谢谢他们).同样的,那是没有参考书目和证明的.

换句话说,"娱乐为主".

请欣赏,批评,自由的分发,以及引用这篇文章.
