ARM Architecture - Example Applications of ARM Cores

Example Applications of ARM Cores

ARM cores are used in a number of products, particularly PDAs and smartphones. Some computing examples are the Microsoft Surface, Apple iPad and ASUS Eee Pad Transformer. Others include the Apple iPhone smartphone, iPod portable media player, Canon PowerShot A470 digital camera, Nintendo DS handheld game console and TomTom turn-by-turn navigation system.

In 2005, ARM took part in the development of Manchester University's computer, SpiNNaker, which used ARM cores to simulate the human brain.

ARM chips are also used in Raspberry Pi, BeagleBoard, BeagleBone, PandaBoard, and other Single-board computers, because they are very small, inexpensive and consume very little power.
