ARM7
     
         A {RISC} {microprocessor} architecture from
        {Advanced RISC Machines} Ltd. (ARM).  Building upon the {ARM6}
        family, the goal of the ARM7 design was to offer higher levels
        of raw compute performance at even lower levels of power
        consumption.  The ARM7 architecture is now (Dec 1994) the most
        powerful low voltage {RISC} processor available on the market.
     
        The ARM7 offers several architectural extensions which address
        specific market needs, encompassing fast multiply and
        innovative embedded {ICE} support.  Software development tools
        are available.
     
        The ARM7 architecture is made up of a core CPU plus a range of
        system peripherals which can be added to a CPU core to give a
        complete system on a chip, e.g. 4K or 8K {cache}, {Memory
        Management Unit}, {Write Buffer}, {coprocessor} interface,
        {ICEbreaker} embedded {ICE} support and {JTAG} {boundary
        scan}.  The {ARM710} {microprocessor} is built around the ARM7
        core.
