ARM express
Encyclopedia
ARM express refers to a line of products from Coridium.

Pin compatible with the Basic stamp
BASIC Stamp
The BASIC Stamp is a microcontroller with a small, specialized BASIC interpreter built into ROM. It is made by Parallax, Inc. and has been popular with electronics hobbyists since the early 1990s because of its low threshold of learning and ease of use due to its simple to understand BASIC...

, the ARM express line is based upon 60 MHz 32 bit ARM
ARM architecture
ARM is a 32-bit reduced instruction set computer instruction set architecture developed by ARM Holdings. It was named the Advanced RISC Machine, and before that, the Acorn RISC Machine. The ARM architecture is the most widely used 32-bit ISA in numbers produced...

 microcontroller
Microcontroller
A microcontroller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. Program memory in the form of NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a typically small amount of RAM...

s programmable in ARMbasic dialect of BASIC, as well as C
C (programming language)
C is a general-purpose computer programming language developed between 1969 and 1973 by Dennis Ritchie at the Bell Telephone Laboratories for use with the Unix operating system....

 and Oberon
Oberon (programming language)
Oberon is a programming language created in 1986 by Professor Niklaus Wirth and his associates at ETH Zurich in Switzerland. It was developed as part of the implementation of the Oberon operating system...

. A compiler converts a high-level language into the hex code which is then loaded into flash and then executed.

The product line consists of:
  • ARM express - Basic Stamp 2 compatible devices, with faster execution
  • ARMmite, a single board controller with a built-in USB interface
  • PRO family, a line of devices footprint-compatible with the Arduino
    Arduino
    Arduino is an open-source single-board microcontroller, descendant of the open-source Wiring platform, designed to make the process of using electronics in multidisciplinary projects more accessible. The hardware consists of a simple open hardware design for the Arduino board with an Atmel AVR...

    , with up to 100 MHz Cortex ARM processors
  • Board-level products, such as for web servers and industrial controls, etc.


ARMbasic may be added to other projects with standalone compilers and licensed BASIC firmware support.
