Motorola 88100

The MC88100 is a microprocessor developed by Motorola that implemented 88000 RISC instruction set architecture. Announced in 1988, the MC88100 was the first 88000 implementation. It was succeeded by the MC88110 in the early 1990s.

Design
Programming model and register set The programming model and register set of the MC88100 is remarkably similar to DLX (and by extension, RISC-V) based CPUs, with 32 General-purpose registers (31 writable) and 51 instructions capable of accessing any of the 32 general-purpose registers at any time. Registers The MC88100 is equipped with a total of 64 user-accessible registers, 32 of them being Control registers, and can access up to 6 registers (4 read, 2 write) simultaneously. The actual usage of GPR is not enforced by the processor for every register except R1, which is used as a return address. ==Notes==
