This course takes an in depth look at the considerations you will need to take into account when designing a system containing an ARM11 core (ARM1136, ARM1156 and ARM1176).
Prerequisites:
A basic awareness of the ARM is highly recommended especially the knowledge of ARM V4T and V5TE instruction sets A basic understanding of assembler or C programming would be useful but not essential
Audience:
Software engineers who not only want to obtain details of how to write software to run on the ARM11, but also wish to obtain an understanding of hardware design issues Hardware engineers who need to understand how to design ARM11 based systems, but also wish to obtain an understanding of the issues of writing software to run on that system
