Board supports soft-processor-based SoC designs
ARCangel 3 from ARC Cores is a new development platform supporting the latest available FPGAs.
The benchmark of CaffeineMarks per milliwatt measures Java performance per unit of power consumed by a system's CPU.
The benchmark test was run on ARC's 625D core without using special Java acceleration hardware.
The resulting power and performance metrics are superior to those being reported by competing processor companies.
