A 5th generation SPARC64 processor is fabricated in 130nm SOI CMOS process with 8 layers of Cu metallization. It runs at 1.3GHz with 34.7W power dissipation in the laboratory. The chip contains over 190M transistors with 19M in logic circuits. The chip size is 18.14mm x 15.99mm. The error detection and recovery mechanism is implemented for execution units and data path logic circuits in addition to on-chip arrays to detect and recover from data logic error. This processor is developed by using mostly in-house CAD tools.
