The ARM® Cortex®-M0 processor is the smallest ARM processor available. The exceptionally small silicon area, low power and minimal code footprint of the processor enables developers to achieve 32-bit performance at an 8-bit price point, bypassing the step to 16-bit devices. The ultra-low gate count of the Cortex-M0 processor also enables its deployment in analog and mixed signal devices.
ARM® Cortex™-M0 DesignStart Processor is configured as a synthesizable, obfuscated verilog netlist designed for academics, start-ups and ad-hoc technology teams looking to teach or prototype with a real ARM processor. Implementation is possible in almost any FPGA to enable SoC design courses and projects around a real, instruction set compatible ARM core.
This video gives you a quick overview of Cortex™-M0 DesignStart Processor.
