MIPS is well-known as a microprocessor pioneer having led the way in RISC-based computing to enable faster and more power efficient semiconductors for a wide range of applications from consumer electronics to networking and communications. More than 30 years after the introduction of the original MIPS RISC architecture MIPS processors have shipped into billions of consumer and enterprise products.

Today MIPS is once again leading a RISC revolution as we build on our deep roots to accelerate the RISC-V architecture for high-performance applications. We are focused on delivering our first RISC-V products: the MIPS P8700 processors which provide a new level of scalability for high-performance heterogeneous computing. Because of our RISC heritage deep engineering expertise and proven technologies MIPS can accelerate development and deployment of RISC-V based solutions
