    Hello,

    I’m new to ARM architecture and was looking to get a better understanding of how it works. Most notably, the Cortex-A series and its DSP functionality.

    When reading through ARM’s webpage, it often refers to “NEON-Advanced SIMD”, “NEON”, and…

    Hi Experts,

    I'm reading white paper for ARMv7 and ARMv8.

    but when i reading cache part and memory re-ordering, i have silly questions.....

    Suppose there are below instructions..

    I'm seeing Cortex-A7 cycle-timing table here :

    http://hardwarebug.org/2014/05/15/cortex-a7-instruction-cycle-timings/


    For example, 

    VADD.F32 Dd, Dn, Dm takes 2 cycles

    VADD.F32 Qd, Qn, Qm takes 4 cycles

    same goes for VMUL..

    Is this really the case…

  • De-merits in using Cortex A9 for single core processor

    Hi Experts,

    A8 is meant for single core and A9 is for multi-core based.

    Consider in case of SoC is build with single core of A9 and A8 how we could compare both in terms of some metrics/parameters like power/speed ?
