  ARM7
       
           A RISC microprocessor architecture from
          Advanced RISC Machines Ltd. (ARM).  Building upon the ARM6
          family, the goal of the ARM7 design was to offer higher levels
          of raw compute performance at even lower levels of power
          consumption.  The ARM7 architecture is now (Dec 1994) the most
          powerful low voltage RISC processor available on the market.
       
          The ARM7 offers several architectural extensions which address
          specific market needs, encompassing fast multiply and
          innovative embedded ICE support.  Software development tools
          are available.
       
          The ARM7 architecture is made up of a core CPU plus a range of
          system peripherals which can be added to a CPU core to give a
          complete system on a chip, e.g. 4K or 8K cache, Memory
          Management Unit, Write Buffer, coprocessor interface,
          ICEbreaker embedded ICE support and JTAG boundary
          scan.  The ARM710 microprocessor is built around the ARM7
          core.
