■ Harvard architecture

■ 1.25 DMIPS/MHz and 0.19 mW/MHz

■ Thumb-2 instruction set brings 32-bit performance

with 16-bit code density

■ Single cycle multiply and hardware division

■ Embedded, fast interrupt controller is now inside the

core allowing:

■ Excellent real-time behaviour

■ Low latency down to six CPU cycles inter-interrupt

■ Six CPU cycles wake-up time from low-power mode

■ Up to 35 faster and up to 45 less code than

ARM7TDMI?
