(Source: man)In April 1985, a small team at Acorn Computers in Cambridge, UK, began rethinking the concept of processors. Engineers Sophie Wilson and Steve Furber developed the ARM1 (which originally stood for Advanced RISC Machine), a modest chip that contained only 25,000 transistors. The ARM1 powered the BBC Micro, creating a 32-bit processor that emphasized … Read more
April 2025 marks the 40th anniversary of the Arm architecture. Originally just an ambitious project in a small corner of Cambridge, UK, Arm has evolved into the most widely used computing architecture globally, supporting billions of devices—from sensors, smartphones, and laptops to cars and data centers. The story of Arm architecture began over forty years … Read more
