Hewlett-Packard Co has this week confirmed that it plans to licence its Precision Architecture RISC design to other manufacturers, but hints that only a limited number of companies will get licences. It has not yet formally confirmed that Hitachi Ltd and likely VLSI Technology will be licensed to fabricate versions of the RISC (CI No 1,222), but that announcement is expected shortly. Hitcahi does not at present have any 32-bit microprocessors that have a market outside Japan.
