MIPS

Lots of random MIPS stuff.

Overview

I’m trying to collate the random bits and pieces that exist out there on the web in general. There’s a lot of PDFs spread all over the place.

CPU Documentation

These are available, well, everywhere, but to make my own life easier I’m going to try and collate all of the MIPS CPUs used in SGI hardware in one place.

• cpu/R3000.pdf - IDT R30xx reference
• cpu/R4300_datasheet.Rev0.3.pdf
• cpu/R4600_Prod_OV.pdf
