Microcontrollers deliver performance with peripherals: industry standard 32-bit architecture provides up to 60 MHz.(ELECTRONICS)

Design News, April, 2005

Based on the need for more processing performance and more than 64 Kbyte memory, engineers in many market segments are considering upgrading from 8-bit or 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) to 32-bit products. Once users arrive at this point, industry standard architectures instead of a proprietary approach and C programming capability instead of assembly language are very important.

Responding to this trend, Texas Instruments (TI) recently announced the TMS470 platform of ARM7-based general-purpose processors. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Using the 32-bit ARM7 Thumb extension debug module multiplier interface (TDMI) core (ARM7TDMI[R]), TMS470 MCUs offer up to 60 MHz of performance for general-purpose applications that include industrial, medical...
