ARM CPUs By: Team 2
ARM OS’s • Windows CE family • Windows 8 • iOS • webOS • Formerly called Palm • Linux • Android • ChromeOS • Ubuntu
RISC vs. CISC • RISC: • Simple instructions • More register memory • CISC: • Complex instructions • Less register memory • Recently Mac moved from RISC to CISC, Microsoft on the other hand is supporting both CISC RISC
Cache • Physically-Indexed and Physically-Tagged (PIPT) (Physical cache) • 32KB 2-way set-associative (Access Method) • Fixed line length of 64 bytes • ARM Cache and Write Buffer Organization • Volatile Memory Stallings, William. "Cache Memory." Computer Organization and Architecture: Designing for Performance. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall, 2010. 143-45. Print.
Cache (continued) Processor Speed Range
Cortex A15 • Word Size: • 32-bit • Register Size • Uniform 16 x 32-bit Register File • Address BUS Size: • 40 bits • RAM Addressable: • Up to 1TB • Clock Speed • 35,000 MIPS at 2.5 GHz • Data BUS Size: • 32-bit • Number and Type of Instructions: • Type: • A64 • # of Instructions: • 32 bit • Cache
