However, there are several high- end versions of the ARM7 and several low-end versions of the ARM9 that are starting to blur these lines. Keith http://www.doubleblackdesign.com

Of significance, the ARM9 has a modified Harvard architecture, whereas the ARM7 has a single bus for both data and instructions. Also the ARM9 has a deeper pipeline. Both these factors, plus probably many others, permit greater 'speed' to be obtained on the ARM9. However the actual performance achieved is dependent on many other factors, for example the interface between the FLASH memory and the processor, so ARM9 does not automatically mean an increase of n% in performance over an ARM7. -- Regards, Richard. + http://www.FreeRTOS.org 13 official architecture ports, 1000 downloads per week. + http://www.SafeRTOS.com Certified by T�V as meeting the requirements for safety related systems.

ARM2 :-pClose, but no cigar. a) Difference between ARM7 and ARM9 is 2 and (slight guess here, keying off the root BIT i BITween ) b) difference bitween ARM7 and ARM9 is 10 ? :)

ARM2 :-pNO! Should be -ARM2 (+ARM7) - (+ARM9) = -ARM2
