Arm Architecture

This document discusses the ARM processor architecture. It is organized into modules covering introduction, applications, features, and architecture. ARM is a RISC-based CPU architecture developed by ARM Holdings. It has architectural simplicity and small implementations, making it well-suited for mobile devices. Key features include a load/store architecture, single-cycle instructions, and power efficiency. The ARM architecture enhances RISC with additional addressing modes and conditional execution.

ARM INTRODUCTION

An ARM processor is
one of a family of CPUs
based on the RISC
(reduced instruction set
computer) architecture
developed by Advanced
RISC Machines (ARM).
APPLICATIONS
 Mobile phones
 Video games
 Modem
 Handy Cams
 Music players
 Calculators
 Computer peripherals such as hard
drives and routers
FEATURES

 Architectural simplicity
 Very small implementations
 Load /store architecture
 Enhanced power saving design
 Most instructions execute in a
single cycle
 All instructions are 32 bit long
FEATURES OF RISC ARCHITECTURE

Large uniform register file


Load/store architecture
Consisting of simple addressing modes
Uniform and fixed length instruction
fields are present
ARM ARCHITECTURE

RISC + Enhanced features =ARM


Enhanced features are
 Each instructions control the ALU and
shifter
 Auto increment and auto decrement
addressing modes
 Multiple Load/store architecture
 Conditional execution
ADVANTAGES OF ARM
 High performance
 Low code size
 Low power consumptions
 Low silicon area
ARM ORGANIZATION
• It supports the concept of pipe line
• Load and store architecture
• It is a 32 bit architecture
