ARC™ 600 and ARC 700 Cores The ARC 600 core is optimized to deliver high performance in a small silicon area with minimal power consumption. The ARC 700 core is the smallest 32-bit 400 MHz processor available today, and supports complex applications with an MMU and processing modes that enable feature-rich and secure operating systems. Both the ARC 600 and ARC 700 cores are DSP-enhanced and eliminate the need for additional signal processing engines.
