As performance requirements increase, the implementation of control elements in embedded applications is moving from 8 bits to 32 bits. At the same time, the implementation vehicle of choice for embedded applications is changing from ASICs to FPGAs due to cost and time to market pressures. This paradigm shift is causing significant change in the choices designers are making for the execution of embedded applications. This is most evident in consumer, industrial, and automotive applications, which are the fastest growing segments of the FPGA market. The ARM7 processor is widely used in these segments. Implementing the ARM7 processor in Actel Flash-based devices allows users to take maximum advantage of this industry standard processor as well as the changes that are occurring in the embedded market.
