types of processor

Jan 13, 2007 25 Replies

As a word of warning for engineers of a similar dimness to me, typing "Soft Core" into Google when looking for a processor core yields results that require extensive explanations to the company IT police. Of course, coming back in on the weekend to click on the links proferred by the search is similarly frowned upon ;-)

Speaking of pins, there's another grouping...

  1. Processors with pins I can see. 2. Processors with pins so small that I become ill-tempered because I have to use a microscope to see them.

Usually my group 2 is inclusive with Grant's group 7.

Please do not feed the troll.

If you are, I bet your code is a nightmare to read/maintain.

I didn't think it possible that poor formatting and grammar could actually be painful to read - until now. It's a shame it isn't as painful to write; it may prove a disincentive to you.

Lets not forget the food processor.
