This template is for CPU architectures.

=== Usage ===
<pre>
{{Infobox CPU architecture
| name =
| designer =
| bits =
| introduced =
| version =
| design =
| type =
| encoding =
| branching =
| endianness =
| page size =
| extensions =
| open =
| registers =
| gpr =
| fpr =
}}
</pre>

=== Description ===
<pre>
{{Infobox CPU architecture
| name = Name of architecture, e.g. x86, SPARC, PowerPC, MIPS, ARM
| designer = Designer of the architecture
| bits = Width of accumulator/general registers/stack top, e.g. 32-bit, 64-bit
| introduced = Year introduced
| version = Version/revision of architecture/ISA
| design = Design strategy, e.g. RISC, CISC
| type = Type of architecture, e.g. Register-Register, Register-Memory, Memory-Memory
| encoding = Instruction set encoding, e.g. Fixed or Variable
| branching = Branching evaluation, e.g. Condition register, Condition code, Compare and branch
| endianness = Byte ordering, i.e. Little, Big, Bi
| page size = Primary size of page, i.e. 4 KiB, 2 MiB, 1 GiB; does not include "huge pages" and other extensions
| extensions = ISA extensions, i.e. MMX, SSE, AltiVec, etc
| open = Is the architecture open or not? (as in free or proprietary)
| registers = Number and size of processor registers
| gpr = Number of general-purpose registers (and size, if not indicated by bits=)
| fpr = Number of floating-point registers (and size, if not indicated by bits=)
}}
</pre>
All fields are optional.

=== Example ===
{{Infobox CPU architecture
| name = SPARC
| designer = [[Sun Microsystems]]
| bits = 64-bit (32 → 64)
| introduced = 1985
| version = V9 (1993)
| design = RISC
| type = Register-Register
| encoding = Fixed
| branching = Condition code
| endianness = Bi (Big → Bi)
| page size = 8 KiB
| extensions = [[Visual Instruction Set|VIS]] 1.0, 2.0, 3.0
| open = Yes
| gpr = 31 (G0 = 0; non-global registers use [[register window]]s)
| fpr = 32
}}
