Cortex-M And Classical Series ARM Architecture Comparisons

ARM has introduced many processors. Each set or groups of processors are having different core and different Features. A new entrant or Designer to the ARM can make use of this paper for easy understanding and choose a processor that is well suited for the requirements. This paper gives brief comparison of the Architectures.

DDR2 Signal Integrity

This paper highlights a typical design approach that can be adopted for an embedded PC (X86 based) board memory subsystem using a VIA VX700 system controller DDR2 interface. Boards with this chipset can feature either an Intel Pentium processor or VIA processor on front side bus (FSB).

Extreme partitioning

Small changes in the initial design of a complex embedded system can often have an unpredictable outcome and have a significant impact on the final system performance
