ARM720T, ARM7EJ-S, ARM7TDMI and ARM7TDMI-S The ARM7 family is a range of low-power 32-bit RISC microprocessor cores optimized for cost and power-sensitive consumer applications. Offering up to 130MIPs (Dhrystone2.1), the ARM7 family incorporates the Thumb 16-bit instruction set - enabling 32-bit performance at 8/16-bit system cost. The family consists of the ARM7TDMI, ARM7TDMI-S and ARM7EJ-S processor cores and the ARM720T cached processor macrocell, each of which has been developed to address different market requirements: - Integer processor
- Synthesizable version of the ARM7TDMI processor
- Synthesizable core with DSP and Jazelle TM technology enhancements for Java acceleration
- Cached core with Memory Management Unit (MMU) supporting operating systems including Windows CE, Palm OS, Symbian OS and Linux
Applications - Personal audio (MP3, WMA, AAC players)
- Entry level wireless handsets
- Two-way pagers
