soft core processor
Hello.
I will be doing an introductory tutorial on "My First Nios II Software Design".
But I just need to get overview of the matter so that I can appreciate and be happy with what I am doing.
So Wikipedia says "soft-core processor is a processor that can be wholly implemented by logic synthesis". I have heard about people using ARM processor in their design. Is ARM refer to architecture or name of processor brand like Nios? Is ARM also soft-core?
Thank you.
