<div>Here is a list of different processor families, with miscellaneous notes for development information:<br />
<br />
See also [[Hardware Hacking]] for a list of systems that include these processors.<br />
<br />
== ARM ==<br />
See [http://www.arm.com ARM website] and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture Wikipedia ARM article] for information about the ARM architecture and processor family.<br />
<br />
From the Linux perspective, there are 2 very different kinds of ARM chips:<br />
* ARM processors that include a memory management unit (MMU), and can run standard Linux<br />
* ARM processors without MMU. These can run a modified version of Linux called uClinux ( http://uclinux.org/ ), enabling Linux to run on MMUless platforms or embedded processors with memory protection unit (MPU). These include ARM processors such as ARM7TDMI, ARM1156T2(F)-S or ARM Cortex-R4(F) for instance. <br />
<br />
Please note that because of security considerations for MMU-less processors, it is unwise to <br />
use them when 3rd-party or untrusted code will be running on the device. For locked-down, single<br />
function devices, MMU-less processors may be appropriate. They are usually less expensive than processors<br />
with MMU.<br />
<br />
Some major ARM platforms/SOCs are:<br />
* [[DaVinci]] from [http://www.ti.com/corp/docs/landing/davinci/firstproducts.html Texas Instruments]<br />
* OMAP - by TI<br />
* i.MX - by FreeScale<br />
** Freescale's GIT repository for i.MX Linux support is at: http://opensource.freescale.com<br />
*** Info about this repository, as of April 2007 is at: http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg39771.html<br />
* [http://www.arm.com/products/DevTools/Hardware_Platforms.html ARM RealView] platforms - by ARM Ltd. <br />
** Linux BSP and resources available at http://www.arm.com/linux with associated [http://www.linux-arm.org/git GIT tree]<br />
* XScale/PXA - by Marvell (formerly Intel) -- has MMU<br />
** PXA255/PXA26x - Cotulla/Dalhart<br />
** PXA27x - Bulverde<br />
** PXA3xx - Monahans family<br />
*** Linux PXA255/PXA26x/PXA27x BSPs are available in mainline kernel. You can find PXA3xx BSP from [http://www.marvell.com/ Marvell]. Marvell team is working hard to get PXA3xx patches accepted by the mainline.<br />
* Orion - by Marvell<br />
** Linux BSP for Orion-2 SoC available on [http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=117869744222933&w=2 ARM Linux Mailing List].<br />
* Philips LPC21xx series of ARM processors are currently the lowest-cost ARM processors available. But they have no MMU.<br />
* [[JuiceBox]] uses a ARM S3C44B0X. It runs uClinux.<br />
* Atmel AT91RM9200 -- has MMU.<br />

=== Renesas SuperH Overview ===<br />
<br />
SuperH is an embedded RISC developed for high cost-performance, miniaturization, and performance per unit of power consumption (MIPS/W). We are developing CPU cores for a wide range of applications and functions and have many products available. Our product lines include a series with the SH-2 as the CPU core and on-chip large-capacity flash memory and peripheral functions such as timer, serial I/O, and AD converter, and a series with the SH-3 or SH-4 as the CPU core, which achieves high-speed data processing and is equipped with cache and MMU. Additionally, there is lineup of series with the SH2-DSP or SH3-DSP as the CPU core, which have full DSP functions and an emphasis on multimedia and communications processing. Currently available products also have lots of features, such as low power modes, low power consumption, and small size. Various versatile operating systems and development tools have been improved, allowing for more efficient development.<br />
