Hi Friends,
Can any one tell me, which is best processor in ARM1136jf-s or ARM926ej-s (performance wise).

Hi Iso,
Thanks for ur reply.. with out SIMD insts.. i have written some loops..& i have computed performance of that code in ARM926 & ARM1136. But ARM926 is giving best performance.. i think because of result latency...
with out using SIMD insts it will happs or what?
Regards,
Ranjith

How are you defining "best performance"?
ARM926 will generally need less cycles than an ARM1136 for a given workload - this is caused by the longer pipeline in the ARM1136. However it is possible to clock the ARM1136 faster, again because of the longer pipeline, meaning that the ARM1136 takes less elapsed time than the ARM926.
Edit: It is also worth making sure that you have turned on branch prediction and other program flow assistance which is available on the ARM1136 - these make branches and returns from functions faster.

The ARM1136 is a substantially newer processor than ARM926 with new instructions for SIMD data operations, faster clock rates, brnach prediction and a better cache interface. It will, for most code, be faster than the ARM926.
As with most of these things it is possible to construct code which will run slower - but providing you are compiling with ARM1136 as the optimization target you are unlikely to hit these cases.
Cheers
Iso

why do we call ARM is a Processor not controller? Although ARM7(LPC2148) and ARM cortex-m series is controller.

In ARM7 and ARM9 PC=current + 8, but in the cortex-A7(8-stage pipeline) the PC is also the same value(PC=current +8), how does this work?
