The propeller chip is designed to provide high-speed processing for embedded systems with low power consumptionand a small footprint.
The propeller chip is not only fast, but also offers versatility and performancewith its eight processors, known as cogs, which can simultaneously perform tasks independently or collaboratively, andboasts a relatively simple architecture that is easy to learn and use.
Two programming languages are available: Spin(a high-level, object-based language) and propeller assembly.
Both contain user-defined commands for easy management of thepropeller chip.
