ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor chip including a ROM portion for storing a microprogram, an execution unit portion for executing an arithmetic operation and random logic circuits disposed between the ROM portion and the execution unit portion. Two-level metal lines technology is used for supplying power for grounding and for providing input/output interconnect lines for the random logic circuits.
