Linux on ARM Processors

ARM Processors

ARM processors can be found in many consumer products and have emerged as a quasi-standard in industrial applications, too. Therefore the support for Linux and different libraries is very good.

The following properties make ARM-based systems attractive for use in industrial applications:

• many manufacturers (but beware: there are almost no real second-sources)
• SoC chips available (ARM core, RAM, flash, programable logic, various interfaces)
• low power consumption
• small footprint
• JTAG and on-chip debug hardware
• good tool support (GNU, ARM etc.)

PowerPC Processors

PowerPC and PowerQUICC processorscan be applied in all 32-bit embedded areas, not only telecom.

Especially the communications resources of the PowerQUICC family make it suitable for applications where interfaces to the IT world or large datastreams must be handled.

In addition many of the newer types are good value for money in the high performance segment.
