The ARM Processor
== The ARM Processor ==
ARM CPUs were originally created as 32-bit desktop RISC processors. They have become highly valued as low-power-consumption processors, and are widely used in cellphones, tablets, and embedded systems; over 5 billion ARM devices are now manufactured anuallyannually.
[http://www.arm.com ARM Ltd. ] does not actually produce any physical chips -- they license the designs to various chipmakers, who then incorporate them into their products, often integrating other peripherals in the process -- peripherals such as camera controllers, network interfaces, or cellphone logic. ARM licensees include [http://www.marvell.com/products/processors/ Marvell], [http://www.ti.com/ww/en/embedded/arm/index.html Texas Instruments], [http://www.samsung.com/global/business/semiconductor/products/mobilesoc/Products_ApplicationProcessor.html Samsung], [http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/homepage.jsp?code=IMX_HOME Freescale], and [http://arm.com/community/partners/ARM_Core_Licensees.php many others].
