Définition de «CISC»

CISC
Angl : Complex Instruction Set Computers.
Configuration d’un microprocesseur d’un ordinateur (surtout les type 80x86) qui utilise un jeu d’instructions complexe (difficiles à créer avec des instructions de base), directement câblées dans le processeur. Le coût d’une telle architecture est élevé, à cause justement du nombre élevé de circuits nécessaires.
C’est le choix adopté pour les PC actuels.

Opposé à RISC.
