Abstract :
Discusses the way in which new embedded RISC architectures have evolved. Basic attention to the future requirements of real-time critical tasks have paved the way for an imaginative cornucopia of new 8, 16 and 32 bit MCU architectures to address the most demanding of real-time embedded system applications. The combination of reduced component costs, reduced power consumption, fast product design cycles and therefore earlier time to market are all absolute imperatives for future embedded applications
