Abstract(in English) ASIPs (Application Specific Instruction-set Processors) are embbeded processors whose architectures are customized for specific applications. A problem of employing ASIPs is a long period of development due to the need of designing a processor for each application respectively. ASIP Meister is a tool that is able to automatically generate HDL descriptions of ASIPs from their specifications. However, although designers use ASIP Meister, it is hard to develop ASIPs in a required period because the demand of shorter TAT has been increasing today. Therefore, base processors for ASIP Meister are required to accelerate developing speed of ASIPs. In this paper, we propose a base processor called Brownie, which is suitable for ASIP Meister, and show the effectiveness of using Brownie through designing several samples.
