Chapter 3. Architecture
Overview
The ARMv6-M architecture that the Cortex-M0 processor implemented covers a number of different areas. The complete details of the ARMv6-M architecture are documented in the ARMv6-M Architecture Reference Manual [reference 3]. This document is available from the ARM web site via a registration process. However, you do not have to know the complete details of the architecture to start using a Cortex-M0 microcontroller. To use a Cortex-M0 device with C language, you only need to know the memory map, the peripheral programming information, the exception handling mechanism, and part of the programmer’s model.
In this chapter, we will cover the programmer’s model and a basic overview of the memory map and exceptions. Most ...
