In August 2008 we announced a partnership with leading embedded processor IP vendor MIPS Technologies - this includes the availability of MIPS-Verified(tm) core models of the MIPS32 4K, 24K, and multicore 34K processor families. Please see the associated press releases and download and library pages of this web site.

The source of the MIPS processor models is also on the site and this joins the open source of all the released Imperas peripheral models and OpenCores OR1K processor. Please visit the OVP open source Library.

Now released is a MIPS based platform that boots Linux 2.6 - this MIPS Linux platform is perfect for developing applications to run on MIPS Linux - and the hardware virtual platform is just right for porting new versions of Linux or to develop drivers for new hardware. Fast, Free, and Easy to Use - please visit the library/Mips32MaltaLinux page for more information or to download this platform.
