| Synopsys' DesignWare(r) ARC(r) Processors are a family of 32-bit CPUs |
| that SoC designers can optimize for a wide range of uses, from deeply embedded |
| to high-performance host applications. |
| More information on ARC cores avaialble here: |
| http://www.synopsys.com/IP/ProcessorIP/ARCProcessors/Pages/default.aspx |
| Designers can differentiate their products by using patented configuration |
| technology to tailor each ARC processor instance to meet specific performance, |
| power and area requirements. |
| The DesignWare ARC processors are also extendable, allowing designers to add |
| their own custom instructions that dramatically increase performance. |
| Synopsys' ARC processors have been used by over 170 customers worldwide who |
| collectively ship more than 1 billion ARC-based chips annually. |
| All DesignWare ARC processors utilize a 16-/32-bit ISA that provides excellent |
| performance and code density for embedded and host SoC applications. |
| The RISC microprocessors are synthesizable and can be implemented in any foundry |
| or process, and are supported by a complete suite of development tools. |
| The ARC GNU toolchain with support for all ARC Processors can be downloaded |
| from here (available pre-built toolchains as well): |
