#136719 - Well talking to a guy the other day Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I was talking to someone who has an application for a system that can download jpeg image data and mpeg movie data over a wireless network and display it on a tft screen as part of a sales display which can be dynamicaly updated, and he was saying that its clearly not an 8 bit application and his initial thoughts were an arm7 but then he looked at the AVR32 and went for that because although its more expensive than an ARM7 it will run embedded linux brand X it has more media type instruction extensions and hardware and consume less power at a given clock speed. Talking to other people although the arm has 700 million variants and the AVR32 is only 6 months old and has a couple of variants I think we are going to see a big battle between arm and avr over the next year with prices dropping to match.
sadly I didnt get to the esc this year as I had planned so there are some pic users out there who didnt get beaten up ;-( |
