What is ARM architecture?
'''ARM architecture''' is a [[computer]] [[central processing unit|CPU]] architecture used in computers of all sizes up to [[supercomputer]]s; commonly used in [[embedded system]]s and [[mobile device]]s such as [[cell phone]]s, [[tablet computer]]s, and handheld [[game console]]s such as the [[Game Boy Advance]]. ARM CPUs use very little [[electricity]] and produce very little [[heat]]. Most ARM CPUs run on battery power and don't need a cooling [[Fan (machine)|fan]]. The [[Linux]] [[operating system]] is used most on ARM CPUs. In 2013 ARM was the world's most popular [[32-bit computing|32-bit]] CPU architecture. Since then, production has increased to millions per day. [[64-bit computing|64-bit]] ARM, which allows for addressing memory greater than 3.8GB, has been available since then and is used in most modern smartphones. == Brands and Manufacturers == * Qualcomm Snapdragon * [[Samsung]] * Texas Instruments * [[Intel]] * MediaTek == Examples of products that use ARM == * Supercomputers including the top one, Fugaku, from 2020 to May 2022 * Most [[Android (operating system)|Android]] devices * [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] [[iPhone]], [[iPod Touch]], and [[iPad]] * Samsung [[Chromebook]] * [[Game Boy Advance]], [[Nintendo DS]], [[Nintendo 3DS]], and [[Nintendo Switch]] * [[Windows RT]] and [[Windows Phone]] * Many [[Wi-Fi]] [[router|routers]] and other [[network]] equipment * [[Digital camera|Digital cameras]] * [[DVD]] and [[Blu-ray Disc|Blu-ray]] players * Some newer [[television]]s * Some [[Car stereo|car stereos]] * [[Raspberry Pi]], a small form computer the size of a credit card == Related pages == * [[Z80]] * [[X86]] * [[Intel Atom]] * [[MIPS architecture]] [[Category:Computer processors]] [[Category:ARM-based processors]]
