A '''soft microprocessor''' (also called softcore microprocessor or a '''soft processor''') is a [[microprocessor]] core that can be wholly implemented using [[logic synthesis]]. It can be implemented via different [[semiconductor]] devices containing programmable logic (e.g.
"Zet soft core running Windows 3.0" by Andrew Felch 2011</ref>
Most systems, if they use a soft processor at all, only use a single soft processor. However, a few designers tile as many soft cores onto an FPGA as will fit.<ref>
