What is CRIS ?
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
CRIS is an acronym for 'Code Reduced Instruction Set'. It is the CPU
|
|
|
architecture in Axis Communication AB's range of embedded network CPU's,
|
|
|
-called ETRAX. The latest CPU is called ETRAX 100LX, where LX stands for
|
|
|
-'Linux' because the chip was designed to be a good host for the Linux
|
|
|
-operating system.
|
|
|
+called ETRAX.
