#158698 - Extra connectivity Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Per Westermark said:
A possible use would be to get more processing power while trying to avoid new certifications of existing hardware. Another possibility is extra connectivity. Nowadays everything - even your toaster - has to be connected to the internet, doesn't it? While it is entirely possible to put internet connectivity into an 8051, it's a lot easier with something like an ARM. And internet connectivity doesn't necessarily need a lot of extra IOs... |

Oh, I see. Thanks for the clarification. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
Interpreter, or macro assembler | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

What would be the advantage? | 01/01/70 00:00 |
