Advanced Application Chipset

Article is work in progress.

Advanced Application Chipset (also known as the AA Chipset) is a RISC-based application-specific integrated circuit of chipsets developed by Omega Logic and introduce in the mid-1990s. Using VLIW as the core technology of the Advanced Application Chipset, it became a successful project for the company.

Designed for use in workstations, supercomputers and other devices, the AA Chipset took advantage of the VLIW core technology and RISC-based instructions.

History
In 1993, Omega Logic has teamed up to create a 600nm RISC-based application-specific integrated circuit chipset. During that time at the CES 1994 show, Omega Logic announced a 600nm RISC-based application-specific integrated circuit chipset called the "AA chipset". Because of Commodore International's bankruptcy, Omega Logic successfully acquired the rights for the AA+ chipset and its respective series of chipsets.

The first batch of AA chipsets were manufactured on June 1995 at TSMC in Taiwan. Omega Logic became successful when the AA Chipset was released to the general public.

On September 1995, the first batch of the 350nm AA chipsets became available.

Technology
The AA Chipset was one of Omega Logic's first ever microprocessors to be produced. Using VLIW and RISC as the core technologies, it runs at a faster clock rate than most of the RISC processors at that time.

Notably, the AA Chipset has an ISA called,
