![]() They might have ARM cores in them - or maybe PIC or AVR or MIPS. But what about my multimeter? Oscilliscope? Pulse Oximeter? Amplified speakers? 4K monitor? Ethernet switch? Wifi router? MIcrowave oven? Dishwasher? And I'm sure a host of things I've not thought of right now. I've heard on good authority that x86 chips have an ARM core or two inside. But there can be others doing auxiliary tasks. Sure, I maybe know how many cores are in the M1 Mac, iPhone SE, iPhone 7, Apple Watch, Pi4, Pi3, Pi2, Pi1, Pi Zero, Odroid C3, Odroid XU4, Arty Z7 (ARM cores embedded in an FPGA), Blue Pill, Nucleo. I wouldn't even know how to make an estimate. 32 in my Linux PC, 6 in the AMD 4500U laptop, 4 in the 2017 NUC, 4 in the 2011 MacBook Pro, 2 in the 2011 MacBook Air, 4 in the i7 4790K Linux machine I haven't turned on in five years.
