Atheros MIPS CPU Reverse Engineering Page
This page hopes to collect, in a convenient form, information about the Atheros MIPS processors. Since documentation on them is rather thin on the ground, this page uses publicly available sources that support these processors, plus press releases, product literature, etc to piece together the different pieces to the Atheros MIPS story.
Overview
There's a number of different processors in the Atheros MIPS lineup.
