According to the above link the Tomtom Go model uses the ARM920T processor.
The Oberon-07 compiler used in Armaide targets the 32-bit ARM instruction
set capability of the NXP (Phillips) LPC2000 processors.

According to the 'ARM Core' table shown at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture

a) The LPC2000 processors belong to the ARM7TDMI family.

b) The ARM920T processors belong to the ARM9TDMI family.

c) Both the ARM7TDMI and ARM9TDMI families use the same ARMv4T Architecture.


As far as I know this all means that they share the same 32-bit ARM
instruction set. However, that information in isolation has limited
usefulness. Why do you ask?
