Abstract

Applications with embedded processor cores represent a rapidly growing segment in industry today. One of the processor cores which has currently achieved high visibility in many different products is the ARM7TDMI core, developed by Advanced RISC Machines Ltd (ARM). The ARM7TDMI processor has recently been targeted for use in disk drive products by Palmchip Corporation. This paper details the experience at Palmchip Corporation of embedding the ARM7TDMI processor into their GreenLite disk drive controller.
