about

The ARM microprocessor has been specifically designed for high- performance functions such as real-time artificial intelligence and high-level language applications. The Acorn chip is smaller and the architecture simpler than conventional microprocessors, yet its execution rate of 3 MIPS is one of the fastest available.

The ARM supports virtual memory, has a small optimised instruction set hard wired into a programmable logic array, a heavily pipelined processor, dedicated registers to handle interrupts and a high memory-to-processor bandwidth.
