ST ARM versus Atmel ARM?

Some of the Kinetis parts have floating point, some don't. As far as I can see, all the Kinetis at 120 MHz and above have floating point, while those at 100 MHz and below do not. In particular, the MK60FN1M0VLQ12 linked above has hardware floating point - that's what the "F" after the MK60 means.

That sounds pretty horrible, but typical of the time. Nowadays multiple digits are collected in integers and then converted one word at a time.

Right. This looks like a damn fine part to me - I recently recommended it in a proposal. It is cheaper than than TI's Sitara AM335x and has crypto.

Doh! Sorry. It is cheaper than TI's Tiva TM4C1294NCPDT.
