Atmel Licenses ARM1176JZF-S Processor

Rousset, France (ots/PRNewswire)

- Extends Atmel's Roadmap of Upwards-Compatible ARM
Technology-Based on 32-bit Microcontrollers From the ARM7 Family
Through to the ARM9 and ARM11 Families
Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today that Atmel has
licensed the ARM1176JZF-S(TM) processor for implementation in
high-performance system-on-chip (SoC) products.
"The licensing of the ARM1176JZF-S processor reinforces Atmel's
long-term commitment to the ARM(R) architecture as one of the
industry standards for 32-bit microcontrollers," said Alfredo
Vadillo, Atmel's managing director for 32-bit MCUs. "We were one of
the first licensees of the ARM7(TM) processor family and have
extended our partnership with ARM through the ARM9(TM) processor
family and now to the ARM11(TM) processor family. Together with our
proprietary AVR(R)32 architecture, Atmel offers the industry's
broadest range of 32-bit Flash microcontroller-based system
solutions."
"Atmel is a leading microcontroller vendor with an extensive
portfolio of ARM technology-based devices featuring the ARM7 and ARM9
family processors," said John Cornish, VP Marketing, Processor
Division, ARM. "Atmel's decision to use the ARM1176JZF-S processor in
future system-on-chip (SoC) products highlights the importance of the
fast growing 32-bit market and the widespread adoption of the ARM
architecture."
The ARM1176JZF-S core clocks at up to 620MHz in 90nm technology,
while achieving a power consumption as low as 0.45 mW/MHz. It
features ARM TrustZone(R) technology for enhanced security, ARM
Jazelle(R) technology for efficient embedded Java execution, and ARM
Intelligent Energy Manager (IEM(TM)) technology that can reduce
processor energy consumption by 25% to 50%. ARM TrustZone technology
provides support within the processor architecture for the trusted
computing environments required to protect critical system functions
from downloaded applications, copyright protection of downloaded
media, and secure over-the-air system upgrades. The ARM1176JZF-S also
features an integrated floating-point co-processor, which makes it
particularly suitable for embedded 3D-graphics applications. The core
runs the ARMv6 instruction set with media processing extensions and
the Thumb(R) instruction set extensions for compact code. It is fully
upward code-compatible with Atmel's existing licensed cores, the
ARM7TDMI(R) and the ARM926EJ-S(TM) processors.
Atmel, a member of the ARM Connected Community, has also licensed
the PrimeCell(R) high-performance AMBA(R) 3 AXI(TM) interconnect
technology (PL301), along with the AMBA Designer tool, for a next
generation on-chip bus development.
Availability
Atmel's first system-on-chip products based on the ARM1176JZF-S
processor will be available 4Q 2007.
