DEC Alpha 21064

Realizes: High-frequency floating-point compute

1992 64-bit RISC pipeline featuring dual integer issue stages, a four-stage fetch/decode/execute/commit path, and on-chip 8 KB instruction and data caches, positioned for DEC server racks and AlphaStation workstations.

Examples

DEC AlphaStation 200

AlphaStation 200 workstation leveraged the DEC Alpha 21064 to deliver high-frequency floating-point performance in engineering and scientific workstations.

Scientific and CAD simulations plus database services that needed high single-thread floating-point throughput.
