The ARM9E processor family enables single processor solutions for microcontroller,
DSP and Java applications, offering savings in chip area and complexity, power
consumption, and time-to-market. The ARM9E family of products are DSP-enhanced
32-bit RISC processors, well suited for applications requiring a mix of DSP and
microcontroller performance. They include signal processing extensions to enhance
16-bit fixed point performance using a single-cycle 32 x 16 multiply-accumulate (MAC)
unit, and implement the 16-bit Thumb
®
instruction set giving excellent code density,
maximizing savings on system cost. The ARM926EJ-S processor also includes ARM
Jazelle™ technology which enables the direct execution of Java bytecodes in hardware.
The ARM9 processor family is built around the ARM9TDMI processor and incorporates
the 16-bit Thumb instruction set, which improves code density by as much as 35%.
The ARM9 family’s comprehensive feature set enables developers to implement
leading-edge systems, while delivering considerable savings in chip area, time-to-
market, development costs and power consumption.
NXP ARM9 Architecture Overview
NXP’s LPC3000 and LH7A ARM9
portfolios are based on the
ARM926EJ (ARM9E) and ARM922T
(ARM9) processor families.
