The MIPS32 34K cores are the embedded industry’s first multi-threaded processors for high-performance, cost-sensitive embedded applications. The 34K core delivers significant gains in system performance and cost savings, with a very modest increase in die size. Implementing the MIPS® Multi-Threading ASE, the 34K core family processes multiple software threads in parallel to deliver significant gains in system performance and cost savings. The 34K cores leverage the proven 24KE™ processor core microarchitecture for integrated DSP capability.
