A microprocessor based on the ARM8 processorcore designed by Advanced RISC Machines Ltd. Plannedfeatures include a 60-100Mhz clock rate; 0.35-0.4 micronsilicon fabrication; an improvement on the ARM7's 1.4cycle/instruction; a 16 Kbyte cache.Some estimates were 100 MIPS and 120 Kdhrystones at 70Mhz(twice the ARM700). Samples of the ARM800 are expected tobe available in late 1995.It may run on a voltage below 3.3V.Digital Semiconductor's Hudson fab is 0.35 micron and theyhave announced a licensing deal for the ARM architecture (seeStrongARM).
