Summary of The ARM University Program, ARM Architecture Fundamentals

00:00:00 - 00:40:00

The ARM University Program provides a comprehensive overview of ARM architecture fundamentals. The program covers topics such as architecture profiles, the history of the ARM architecture, and the different instruction sets available. The program also offers a range of teaching and training resources to help students transition to using ARM technology.

• 00:00:00 The ARM architecture is a popular processor design used in a wide variety of devices, including digital products. Arm is a global company with offices in multiple countries, and provides system-level IP and physical IP to make sure products are manufacturable. Arm's partners include companies in the connected community, which allows them to share knowledge and experience.
• 00:05:00 ARM is a popular architecture for microcontrollers and SoCs, used in a variety of devices including smartphones, laptops, and other consumer electronics. Arm's architecture is versatile and efficient, making it perfect for deep-level embedded systems.
• 00:10:00 The ARM University Program is a series of videos that introduce fundamental concepts in ARM architecture. In this video, the program discusses architecture profiles, which allow a single architecture to support a wide range of performance and application needs. The program also covers the history of the ARM architecture and how it has evolved over time.
• 00:15:00 The ARM University Program provides fundamental knowledge in ARM architecture. The program includes instruction sets for 32-bit and 16-bit processors, load/store instructions, and memory manipulation. Cortex processors are used in high-performance applications, such as smartphones, tablets, and netbooks.
• 00:20:00 The ARM University Program, ARM Architecture Fundamentals, covers the basics of the ARM instruction set. Modes and registers are described, and how they interact. When switching into an ARM mode, a subset of registers are used.
• 00:25:00 The ARM University Program provides a comprehensive overview of ARM architecture fundamentals. The slides outline the register organization in ARM, including the thumb state low registers and the stack pointer. The Cortex-M cores have different register sets, and the J and T bits indicate the instruction set the core is currently executing.
• 00:30:00 The ARM University Program provides a summary of the basics of the ARM architecture, with an emphasis on the Cortex-M microcontroller. This video covers the basics of exceptions in the ARM architecture, how they are handled, and how the instruction sets are implemented.
• 00:35:00 The ARM University Program provides an introduction to the ARM instruction set. The instruction set is 32 bits long, most instructions can be conditionally executed, and the ARM architecture is a load/store architecture. The syntax of ARM instructions can look complicated, but once you understand the basic structure, it is really quite simple. There are a few unconditional instructions in the instruction set, but the majority of instructions can be made conditional. The ARM data processing instructions don't change the condition codes by default, and there is a second instruction set coding called thumb.
• 00:40:00 The ARM University Program offers an extensive range of teaching and training resources, which can help you transition your current teaching to ARM technology. Additionally, the ARM C compiler is capable of vectorizing code automatically to make best use of the neon instruction set.
