cpu and arithmetic logic unit alu architectures are those that are based on registers address buses or data buses of that size there are currently no mainstream general purpose processors built to operate on 256 bit integers or addresses though a number of processors do operate on 256 bit data contents 1 representation 2 history 3 hardware 4 software 5 see also 6 references representation edit a 256 bit register can store 2 256 different values the range of integer values that can be stored in 256 bits depends on the integer representation used the maximum value of an unsigned 256 bit integer is 2 256 1 written in decimal as 115 792 089 237 316 195 423 570 985 008 687 907 853 269 984 665 640 564 039 457 584 007 913 129 639 935 or approximately as 1 1579 x 10 77 256 bit processors could be used for addressing directly up to 2 256 bytes already 2 128 for 128 bit addressing would greatly exceed the total data stored on earth as of 2018 which has been estimated to be around 33 3 zettabytes over 2 75 bytes 1 history edit xbox 360 was the first high definition gaming console to utilize the ati technologies 256 bit gpu xenos 2 before the introduction of the current gaming consoles especially nintendo switch some buses on the newer system on a chip e g tegra developed by nvidia utilize 64 bit 128 bit 256 bit or higher hardware edit laptop computer using an efficeon processor cpus feature simd instruction sets advanced vector extensions and the fma instruction set etc where 256 bit vector registers are used to store several smaller numbers such as eight 32 bit floating point numbers and a single instruction can operate on all these values in parallel however these processors do not operate on individual numbers that are 256 binary digits in length only their registers have the size of 256 bits binary digits are found together in 128 bit collections modern gpu chips may operate data across a 256 bit memory bus or possibly a 512 bit bus with hbm3 3 the efficeon processor was transmeta s second generation 256 bit vliw design which employed a software engine to convert code written for x86 processors to the native instruction set of the chip 4 5 the darpa funded data intensive architecture diva system incorporated processor in memory pim 5 stage pipelined 256 bit datapath complete with register file and alu blocks in a wideword processor in 2002 6 software edit 256 bits is a common key size for symmetric ciphers in cryptography such as advanced encryption standard increasing the word size can accelerate multiple precision mathematical libraries applications include cryptography researchers at the university of cambridge use a 256 bit capability pointer which includes capability and addressing information on early implementations of their cheri capability system 7 sha 256 hash function smart contracts use 256 or 257 bit integers 256 bit words for the ethereum virtual machine we realize that a 257 bits byte is quite unusual but for smart contracts it is ok to have at least 256 bits numbers the leading vm for smart contracts ethereum vm introduced this practice and other blockchain vms followed 8 see also edit berkeley iram
