Significance of ARM Microcontroller Course

 

ARM MICROCONTROLLER:

The ARM (Advanced Reduced Instructions set computer) Microcontroller has a 32-bit RISC. In 1987, Acronis computer's organization established ARM Microcontroller. Different manufacturers such as ST Microelectronics, Motorola, etc., developed the ARM Microcontroller. It is also known as Brain of an Embedded System. There are several Best Embedded Courses available that assists you to operate all Hardware Components.

ARM Processor:

ARM Processor is one family of CPUs based on RISC Architecture developed by ARM Microcontroller. An example of an ARM Processor is the Raspberry Pi Product that fits into the user's pocket and works on 256 MB of RAM. It is a simplified design with more efficient and makes easy coding for developers.

Features:

  • Load / Storable Architecture
  • Orthogonal Instruction set
  • Single-cycle Execution
  • Developed Power saving design
  • Hardware virtualization support

Application:

The ARM Microcontroller is used in electronic devices such as Mobile phones, PDA, Digital Media, Music Players, Calculators, and hard drives. It has a reduced Instruction set, so it needs fewer transistors, enabling a smaller size for Integrated Circuit. As a result, it is more efficient than other Higher Microcontrollers.

Difference between ARM and Other Microcontroller:

ARM vs 8051:

 Bus width: ARM has 32-bit and is also available in 64-bit, whereas 8051 Microcontroller is 8-bit for the standard core.

 Speed: For ARM, one clock per Instruction cycle, but 8051 Microcontroller was 12 clocks/ instruction cycle.

 Instruction Set Architecture: 8051 is CISC, whereas ARM is RISC Architecture. 

ARM vs PIC:

 Bus width: ARM has 32-bit and is also available in 64-bit, whereas PIC Microcontroller is 8/16/32-bit for the standard core.

 Speed: For ARM, one clock per Instruction cycle, but PIC Microcontroller was four clocks/ instruction cycle.

 Instruction Set Architecture: PIC is some feature of RISC, whereas ARM is RISC Architecture.

ARM vs AVR:

 Bus width: ARM has 32-bit and is also available in 64-bit, whereas AVR Microcontroller is 8/32-bit for the standard core.

 Speed: For ARM, one clock per Instruction cycle, but AVR Microcontroller was one clock/ instruction cycle.

 Another feature: AVR is cheap expensive, whereas ARM is vast.
