1.1 Benefits of RISC Design
Advanced Semiconductor Technologies
Each new VLSI technology is introduced with tight limits on the number of transistors that fit on each chip. Since the simplicity of a RISC processor allows it to be implemented in fewer transistors than its CISC counterpart, the first computers capable of exploiting these new VLSI technologies have been using and will continue to use RISC architecture.
