 Intel XScale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The XScale core is Intel's implementation of the 25th generation of the ARM architecture based on the v5TE ISA without the floating point instructions.
All the generations of XScale are 32-bit ARM v5TE processors manufactured with a 0.18 µm process and have a 32kb data cache and a 32kb instruction cache (this would be called a 64kb Level 1 cache on other processors).
The PXA250 was Intel's first generation of XScale processors.

 EETimes.com - Intel eyes robotic-controller sockets for Xscale
Intel's Xscale architecture expands the ARM embedded microprocessor family by combining low-power "intelligence," the popular Thumb instruction set and extensions for high-speed digital signal processors (DSPs).
Typical Xscale chips can run between 0.1 watt to 1 watt as their clock speeds are tuned to instantaneous computing requirements, making them a good candidate for autonomous robots, according to Intel.
"Xscale is designed to provide optimal Mips/watt operation for embedded devices like wireless Internet appliances, but we believe that robotics is a good application area for it too," said Patrick Gelsinger, vice president and chief technology officer for Intel.
