PROCESSORS AND ARCHITECTURE

C.1. ARM NAMING CONVENTION

C.2. CORE AND ARCHITECTURES

This appendix lists ARM processor names together with their core name and Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). We have omitted processors designed prior to the ARM7TDMI.

For example, Table C.3 shows that the ARM966E-S processor has a ARM9E core and implements ARM architecture version 5TE. Any ARMv5TE binaries will execute on an ARM966E-S processor.

C.1 ARM NAMING CONVENTION

All ARM processors share a common naming convention that has evolved over time. ARM cores have the name ARM{x}{labels ...
