Mr. A. Sai Chander, Assistant prof'essor in the Department ot Electronics and Communication Engineering, conducted Online guest lectureonAdvanced Processersfor Third year students of ECE. Mr. A. Sai Chander. Assistant professor in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering introduced and Hand over the Section to Mr.Gopa1 Krishna
Outline of the session is to build the knowledge on:
- Features of Advanced Processors
- Classification o1 ARM Processors
- Features of ARM Processors
- Classification of Cortex Processors
- Architecture of Cortex Processors
- Applications Cortex Processors
- Comparison of Cortex Processors
Features of Advanced Processors:
Advanced processors allow you to perform advanced functions such as delining custom processing using scripting or expressions, or generating w'arnings from data processing.
The following features enable microprocessor to be a versatile component in aninstrumentation system.
- Memory.
- Decision making power based on previously entered values.
- Repeatability of the reading.
- Digital read-out and instructiveness.
- Parallel Processing.
- Time sharing and multiprocessing.
- Data storage, retrieval and transmission
- Effective control of multiple equipment in time sharing basis
- Microprocessors are extremely used where a lot of“processing is required
Classification of ARM Processors:
ARM processors offer a variety o1 capabilities for different purposes. Depending on the level of per4ormance you need, you can choose between the Cortex-A. Cortex-R, or Cortex- M categories of high-level processors.
ARM Processors are classiiied into three catagories
- Classical ARM Processors
- Appilication ARM Processors
- Embedded ARM Processors
- Classification of Cortex Processors:
- The Cortex portfolio is split broadly into three main categories:
- Cortex-A: Application processor cores for a performance-intensive system, Cortex-A stands for Application processor cores which are widely used in performance- intensive applications and this will be put to best use while used with the applications related to the Android and Linux operating systems.
- Cortex-R: High-performance cores for real-time applications, the ARM Cortex-R4 MPCore processor is a highly configurable processor ior use in embedded real-time systems. It consists of one or two Cortex-R7 cores in a single cluster. It implements the ARMv7-R architecture, and includes Thumb-2 technology for optimum code density and processing throughput.
- Cortex-M: Microcontroller cores tor a wide range of embedded applications, the ARM Cortex-M is a group of 32-bit RISC ARM processor cores licensed by ArmHoldings. These cores are optimized for low-cost and energy-e1“ticient integrated circuits, which have been embedded in tens of" billions of’consumer devices.
