GreenArrays, Inc. is an American semiconductor company founded in 2009 by computer engineer Charles H. Moore and colleagues.[1] It develops low-power, asynchronous multicomputer chips and associated software tools. Its products use many small, independently operating stack computers on a single integrated circuit.[2]
History
GreenArrays was established on 13 February 2009.[3] Moore, the creator of the Forth programming language, served as chairman and chief technology officer.[4]
In 2010, the company announced that the GA144, a chip comprising 144 F18A computers in an 18-by-8 array, had been released to production. Shipments of the production GA144 began in 2011, when GreenArrays also planned an evaluation board containing two GA144 chips.[5]
Technology and products
GreenArrays' chips are based on the F18 family of 18-bit stack computers. The company has described prototype devices including the four-computer GA4, 32-computer GA32, 40-computer GA40, and 144-computer GA144. The GA144 is an asynchronous array of F18A nodes with local memory and neighbour-to-neighbour communication.[6]
The company supplied arrayForth, a development environment for GreenArrays chips that included compilers, simulators and a boot-stream generator.[7] Its EVB001 evaluation board paired two GA144 chips with USB and serial interfaces, SRAM, flash storage and a prototyping area.[8]
