| ARM Cortex-M0 DesignStart Processor |
Processor Design Kit (Manufacture / Prototype / Simulation) |
The ARM Cortex-M0 processor is the fastest licensing ARM processor today. The low power, small gate count and code footprint of the processor makes it ideal for MCU and mixed signal applications, providing 32-bit performance and efficiency in an 8/16-bit footprint. As the entry-level ARM processor, it is also ideal for designers, students and researchers who need low cost access to industry standard processor IP. The DesignStart version contains obfuscated gate-level Verilog of the processor, and is available to approved educational institutions and companies with no initial payment necessary. Although this special version has some limitations relative to the full ARM Cortex-M0 processor, it is fully software compatible and enables designers to create manufacturable designs. |
