Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Merged DRAM/logic chip architectures, such as PPRAM(Parallel Proccssing RAM), will improve the design freedom as compared with conventional computer systems consisting of separate MPU and DRAM chips. For example, they will allow us to exploit at least three on-chip memorypath architectures: (a)register-register architecture with cache memory, (b)register-register architecture without cache memory, and (c)memory-memory architecture. Regarding the real LSI design, it is necessary to tradeoff between (1)performance, (2)areas, and (3)power. This paper develops the models of the memorypaths for the register-register architecture with cache memory and their area formulas, in order to enable the comparison of the memorypath designs. Then, the paper evaluates the area characteristics of these memorypath models quantitatively.
