There are many microcontroller architectures available to an embedded systems developer. But as more and more vendors adopt the ARM core, the choices become limited.

In an interesting twist this week, one of the ARM competitors--Microchip--decided to hop on the ARM bandwagon, sort of. In a roundabout way, Microchip is attempting to become an ARM licensee. They are doing this by attempting to acquire the microprocessor divisions of Atmel.
