Template:mpu PEZY-SCnp (SC - Super Computer; np - New Package) is a revised version of the PEZY-SC model by PEZY introduced in may of 2016. The new model uses a slightly larger package, lower core voltage, slightly higher core frequency, and thus higher performance. The PEZY-SCnp is said to deliver 1.57 TFLOPS (double-precision). PEZY also upgraded the connections from PCIe Gen2 to Gen3. As with the PEZY-SC, the SCnp is also manufactured on TSMC's 28HPC+ (28 nm process).

Architecture

Main article: PEZY-SC §Architecture

The PEZY-SCnp's architecture is identical to the PEZY-SC.

Cache

PEZY-SC's cache is separate from the ARM926's cache which has an L1$ of 32 KiB (2x) and 64 KiB L2$ (shared).

[Edit/Modify Cache Info]

Cache Organization Cache is a hardware component containing a relatively small and extremely fast memory designed to speed up the performance of a CPU by preparing ahead of time the data it needs to read from a relatively slower medium such as main memory. The organization and amount of cache can have a large impact on the performance, power consumption, die size, and consequently cost of the IC. Cache is specified by its size, number of sets, associativity, block size, sub-block size, and fetch and write-back policies. Note: All units are in kibibytes and mebibytes.
