Thank you for your interests.
The hardware architecture is basically like 32-bit MIPS, with five
stage pipe line. It's like ARM or SuperH, it only has sixteen
registers. Instructions format is 16-bit and 32-bit, which should be
aligned to 32-bit.
It is used for embedded system, such as digital camera by Fuji Film,
mobile phone, some factory automation system, and so on.
Well, I speak about cross compiling, because every man have to go
through that way at least once, to be real man. I mean, to reach the
status of native compilation. :-)
