The StrongARM is a family of computer microprocessors developed by Digital Equipment Corporation and manufactured from the mid 1990s which implemented the ARM v4 instruction set architecture. It was acquired by Intel in 1997 from DEC's Digital Semiconductor division as part of a settlement of a lawsuit between the two companies over patent infringement. Intel continued to manufacture it before replacing it with a StrongARM-derived ARM-based architecture called XScale in the early 2000s.
