Why Teach ARM?
 ARM Ltd is a leading supplier of microprocessor intellectual property and designs and licenses fast, low-cost, power efficient RISC processors. More and more we are seeing instructors of computer architecture and organization courses choose a target processor to illustrate the basic principles of instruction set design such as registers, addressing modes, instruction types, etc.  ARM based TI microcontrollers and processors provide an excellent vehicle for teaching over a hypothetical model or older Intel architecture due to ARM's growing popularity in the market.
TI ARM in Education
 Couple your architecture, microcontroller and embedded processor classroom teaching with labs based around industry standard development platforms.  TI is committed to delivering not only the right levels of performance, but also the right levels of peripheral and heterogeneous multi-core integration to meet the needs of a variety of markets, making TI ARM based devices very popular. TI has over 200 feature-rich ARM devices from Cortex-M3 to Cortex-A15.  Devices include everything from advanced communications peripherals, control peripherals on our Stellaris MCU's and DSP co-processors on our OMAP and DaVinci devices.  A comprehensive software ecosystem for TI's ARM based portfolio is unparalleled.  Whether you are teaching with a real-time operating system, advanced operating system or none at all, TI offers a complete set of runtime software for each platform.

Students will have an advantage in their education and projects using TI based ARM platforms which leverage both the latest ARM processors complementing TI's proprietary MCU and DSP architectures, coupled with our 25 year history and support of academics through our university program.
