Before you embark upon your next embedded system or DSP design, make sure you check out the benefits of the ARC, a true customizable processor architecture. If you visit the ARC booth at either the Embedded Systems Conference Europe or DSP World featuring ISCPAT, you'll be entered in a draw to win one of five new PalmPilot organizers. Remember to print out this email and take it along to our booth to be entered into the draw. WHAT IS THE ARC? The ARC may be labeled a 32-bit RISC processor core, but it's much more ... - The ARC is whole architecture/design methodology, completely and easily configurable to your application - from mobile phones to disk drives - The ARC lets you create the exact combination of RISC processor and DSP functionality you need with full custom extensions, in a single core. - The ARC Configuration Wizard allows you to point-and-click your way to automatic generation of a HDL description, complete with synthesis scripts, test harness and makefiles. - The ARC provides the complete toolchain, enabling easy integration of DSP functions into an ASIC. So with ARC you get a complete package to get to system-on-a-chip implementation within weeks - not months. WHY THE ARC? - Fully customizable and reusable IP - Up to 1000% increase in performance - 50% or more savings in power consumption - A rapid route to working silicon We look forward to seeing you at the shows! * Embedded Systems Conference Europe, Ascot, UK, 8-9 September * DSP World, Toronto, Canada, 14-16 September Booth details can be found under "Trade Shows" at http://www.risccores.com/ "ARC - the difference is the architecture"
