The Development History of MIPS Architecture

When it comes to the design and energy efficiency of processors, if we talk about the most classic RISC processor, then it must be MIPS. Even its competitors have to acknowledge its elegance. It is regarded as a model in processor textbooks, and many other processors bear its influence. Next, let’s explore the origins of … Read more

MIPS and RISC-V Embedded Chip Programming

MIPS and RISC-V Embedded Chip Programming

With the current chip shortage being a hot topic once again, the blockade of foreign chip supplies and the price surge of domestic MCUs have gradually led to a consensus in the embedded industry regarding the trend of chip localization. Therefore, I would like to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these two domestic chip … Read more

Integrating FreeRTOS on ARMv8-M Architecture Processors

Integrating FreeRTOS on ARMv8-M Architecture Processors

1 The Cortex-M series microcontrollers based on the ARMv8-M architecture (Cortex-M33 and Cortex-M23) introduce TrustZone technology. TrustZone enables two security domains within a single processor, partitioning the execution space into secure and non-secure areas. This enhances security by achieving complete isolation between trusted software running on the secure side and untrusted software running on the … Read more
