How's your M4 core treating you?

There are quite a few microcontroller companies out there offering Cortex M4 based MCUs.

Have you designed with the M4, and if so how do you find its usability in real-time embedded systems?

Hi Jim,

You might want to expand on "real-time" in your question as the Cortex-Rx family is actually a much better fit, as it's much more deterministic then the Cortex-Mx family...
