The reality today is that MediaTek is number two in mobile after Qualcomm. Meizu MX5 uses a MediaTek SoC as does the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and many others. Trust me, it's my job to know.

I wouldn't call Meizu, Xiaomi or other similar brands "far afield". They ship tens of millions of devices (and soon maybe even hundreds) every year.

When I wrote my first article, a lot of people said "Why are they using old technology in a space probe?" By creating that chart, I wanted to show that a space probe is not a phone or PC. You can't just throw octa-core SoCs i

A bit more context: MIPS M-class CPUs implement full hardware virtualization into a microprocessor that is 0.04mm2 - this is 25x-50x smaller than conventional mobile chips manufactured in a 28HPM process node. In addition, a MIPS M5150 CPU

I can tell you that ARM and MIPS ship about 5bn 32-bit MCUs per year combined. I can't give you a statistic for 8- or 16-bit MCUs though.

I wasn't around to witness the Lexra situation so I can't/won't contradict your observations. However, I think there are a few other reasons why MIPS did not ride the wave of mobile like ARM did. First of all, MIPS Techn

I left out R8000 because it was used only for a short period of time and in a limited range of systems.

I think the original intention of the Stanford group was to highlight pipelining, so the "without interlocked" aspect should be seen in that context and not interpreted literally. Until the late 1980s pipelining had been drastical

Both MIPS and ARM sell CPU IP therefore I'm sure anyone here can dig up several examples of patent infringements that ended up in court. I think what sets us apart from the competition is the fact that a MIPS CPU is now completely open

I know, we've shipped about 800 million MIPS CPUs in the last year alone. But for that time in history, a million processors was a big milestone. You also have to remember that in 1988 MIPS was a three-year old company battling establi

You're right, it is a typo. It's actually http://ark.intel.com/products/80817/Intel-Core-i5-4460-Proce... I'll update the chart, thanks for noticing.
