The RISC Single Chip , or RSC , is a single chip microprocessor developed and Semiconductor device fabrication fabricated by IBM International Business Machines IBM . The RSC was a feature reduced single chip implementation of the POWER1 , a multi chip central processing unit CPU which implemented the IBM POWER POWER instruction set architecture ISA . It was used in entry level workstation models of the IBM RS 6000 family, such as the Model 220 and 230. Image RSC chip schema.png right thumb Logic schematic of the RSC chip The RSC operated at frequencies of 33 and 45 MHz. It has three execution unit s a Arithmetic logic unit fixed point unit , floating point unit and branch processor and an 8 KB unified instruction and data cache. Like the POWER1, the memory controller and I O was tightly integrated, with the functional units responsible for the functions a memory interface unit and sequencer unit Clarify date March 2011 residing on the same die as the processor. The RSC contains nine functional units, and these other functional units included the memory management unit , COP unit, Clarify date March 2011 instruction fetch unit and instruction queue and dispatch unit. The fixed point unit executes integer instructions, generates addresses in load store operations and some portions of branch instructions. It has a three stage Instruction pipeline pipeline consisting of decode , execute and writeback stages. Some instructions require several cycles in the execute stage before they are completed. The floating point unit executes floating point instructions. Unlike the POWER1, the RSC does not have register renaming capability due to a limited die area in which the unit must fit in.
