Preface
About this book
This book is a generic user guide for devices that implement the ARM Cortex-M7 processor.
Implementers of Cortex-M7 designs make a number of implementation choices, that can affect
the functionality of the device. This means that, in this book:
• Some information is described as implementation defined. This can be a function, mode,
range, value or setting that an ARM partner can choose to configure at implementation.
• Some features are described as optional. This can be a function, component, mode, value
or setting that the ARM partner can choose to include at implementation.
See the Glossary for a description of the term implementation defined.
In this book, unless the context indicates otherwise:
Processor Refers to the Cortex-M7 processor, as supplied by ARM.
Device Refers to an implemented device, supplied by an ARM partner, that incorporates
a Cortex-M7 processor. In particular, your device refers to the particular
implementation of the Cortex-M7 that you are using. Some features of your
device depend on the implementation choices made by the ARM partner that
made the device.
Product revision status
The rnpn identifier indicates the revision status of the product described in this book, where:
rn Identifies the major revision of the product, for example r1.
pn Identifies the minor revision or modification status of the product, for example
p2.
Intended audience

Typographical conventions
Style Purpose
italic Introduces special terminology, denotes cross-references, and citations.
bold Highlights interface elements, such as menu names. Denotes signal names. Also used for terms in descriptive
lists, where appropriate.
monospace Denotes text that you can enter at the keyboard, such as commands, file and program names, and source code.
monospace Denotes a permitted abbreviation for a command or option. You can enter the underlined text instead of the full
command or option name.
monospace italic Denotes arguments to monospace text where the argument is to be replaced by a specific value.
monospace bold Denotes language keywords when used outside example code.
<and> Encloses replaceable terms for assembler syntax where they appear in code or code fragments. For example:
MRC p15, 0 <Rd>, <CRn>, <CRm>, <Opcode_2>
SMALL CAPITALS Used in body text for a few terms that have specific technical meanings, that are defined in the ARM® Glossary.
For example, IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED, IMPLEMENTATION SPECIFIC, UNKNOWN, and UNPREDICTABLE.
