In this paper, a specialized soft processing core for sensor nodes has been designed and implemented. The paper presents a detailed view of architecture and the instructions set of the processor. The core can be easily integrated with other sensor node parts to construct different types of nodes that can be used to support different sensor network applications. The core is implemented using Xilinx ISE 8.2i design tools. The architecture of the core is simple and can process 10.78 MIPS.
