ARM8 is the successor to the ARM7, a low-power performance ARM microarchitecture designed by ARM Holdings for the mobile market. This microarchitecture is designed as an IP core and is sold to other semiconductor companies to be implemented in their own chips.
Architecture[edit]
Key changes from ARM7[edit]
- ARMv4 (from ARMv3)
