<processor> A microprocessor based on the ARM8 processor
core designed by Advanced RISC Machines Ltd. Planned
features include a 60-100Mhz clock rate; 0.35-0.4 micron
silicon fabrication; an improvement on the ARM7's 1.4
cycle/instruction; a 16 Kbyte cache.
Some estimates were 100 MIPS and 120 Kdhrystones at 70Mhz
(twice the ARM700). Samples of the ARM800 are expected to
be available in late 1995.
It may run on a voltage below 3.3V.
Digital Semiconductor's Hudson fab is 0.35 micron and they
have announced a licensing deal for the ARM architecture (see
StrongARM).
