Which microarchitectures use micro-operations?
editI'd like to see this article document the history of the use of micro-operations. For example, which microarchitectures in the List of Intel CPU microarchitectures incorporate(d) micro-operations? – Wdfarmer (talk) 06:59, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- All of them do, but not in exactly the same way. All of them use traditional fixed microcode to various degrees, while the later ones (P6 and onwards) also use dynamically created sequences of microinstructions (as described in the article). 83.255.38.101 (talk) 14:50, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- IBM's z/Architecture (non-x86) z196 and z13 microprocessors also break down CISC instructions into micro-operations. Guy Harris (talk) 20:27, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

External links modified (January 2018)
editHello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on Micro-operation. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20140811023120/http://sc.tamu.edu/systems/eos/nehalem.pdf to http://sc.tamu.edu/systems/eos/nehalem.pdf
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.
An editor has reviewed this edit and fixed any errors that were found.
- If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
- If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.

We should add a section on CISC to Micro-op decoding as in x86

- Micro-operations are already mentioned in the second paragraph of Complex instruction set computer#Superscalar, with a link back to the micro-operations page; is more needed there? Guy Harris (talk) 03:15, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
