True but, the Cygnal part has a lot of other stuff on the chip too. For
many of the things the Cygnal part is good for, the ARM solution would
require additional chips. It is worth checking out.
Analog devices Shark running at 60MHz would beak the ARM for many
situations. Unfortunately it is less self contained.
