What is the use of Thumb instructions in ARM processor ?

Answer Posted / kumana

ARM has two types of instructions.
1. 32-bit instructions, and 2.16-bit thumb intsructions.
Thumb instrcutions are used mainly for reducing the code
size. But, there is a increase in runtime because of
increased number of instructions. So, it's a tradeoff
between codesize-runtime.
