ARM Cortex-M1 Processor

 
The ARM Cortex™-M1 processor addresses the need for a high-quality, standard processor architecture for FPGA applications, supporting any FPGA device including those from Actel, Altera, Lattice and Xilinx. Cortex - Intelligent Processors By ARM

The ARM Cortex-M1 processor brings the broad ecosystem of tools and operating systems of the ARM Connected Community to FPGA users, as well as software compatibility with ASIC optimised processors such as the ARM Cortex-M3 processor. Developers can standardize on a single architecture, supported by the largest eco-system in the industry, to reduce their hardware and software engineering costs.


Low Cost Solutions

Cortex-M1 Development Kit
The ARM Cortex-M1 Development Kit is a natural extension to the Cortex-M1 processor, enabling developers to reduce engineering costs through the standardization of products on a single architecture spanning FPGAs, MCUs, ASICs and ASSPs.
Cortex-M1 Dev Kit The Cortex-M1 Development Kit, is a complete ARM design solution optimized for Altera Cyclone III Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices offering an easy route to deploying FPGAs, enabling developers to benefit from seamless integration of ARM processor technology using the Altera Quartus II and Altera SOPC tools.

The introduction of the ARM Cortex-M1 Development Kit, comprised of the ARM Cortex-M1 processor netlist and ARM RealView Microcontroller Development Kit, offers FPGA developers a plug-in to Altera’s development environment, as well as access to the ARM processor architecture at an affordable price. The Cortex-M1 Development Kit will be distributed throughout Europe and the US by Arrow Electronics.


Available from Actel with no license fee
Actel have announced they are the first licensee of the Cortex-M1 processor, and has made the Cortex-M1 processor available to their customers license fee free for use on Actel FPGAs. .Actel company logo
The Cortex-M1 is available for use in M1 Flash family devices, which have been made ARM-enabled for seamless use of the processor core. The devices are based on Actel nonvolatile Flash ProASIC®3 (M1A3P1000) and Fusion (M1AFS600) devices. Contact Actel for further details and availability.
