CISC vs RISC Processor Architecture
- 1. CISC vs RISC by : Kaushik Patra (kpatra@gmail.com) a beginner’s reference
- 2. Agenda A quick introduction Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) ISA classification CISC philosophy RISC philosophy Conclusion
- 3. Introduction
- 4. ISA Instruction Set Architecture. An agreement between hardware and human for making interaction. Example : ADD R1, R2, R3 Can be represented as : 00101111100001111001010101010101 10111010100011110101001011011010
- 5. ISA Classification Two major schools of ISA CISC Complex Instruction Set Computer RISC Reduced Instruction Set Computer
- 6. CISC Philosophy Reduce amount of storage used and accessed - reduce load/store. Give support for compatibility. Make compiler’s job easier. Support complex assembly level programming.
- 7. RISC Philosophy Execute one instruction per clock. Keep all instructions of same size. Allow only load / store instruction to access the memory. Give support for high level languages (like C, C++, Java).
- 8. Conclusion CISC -> RISC : A paradigm shift Assembly -> C / C++ / JAVA Much more design simplicity with RISC. Ensures better pipelining. Memory is cheaper nowadays So, go for RISC style design.
