How to prevent execution surprises for Cortex-M7 MCU?

How to prevent execution surprises for Cortex-M7 MCU?
by Eric Esteve on 08-06-2015 at 11:00 am

ARM Cortex-A series processor core (A57, A53) are well known in the high performance market segments, like Application Processor for smartphone, Set-Top-Box or networking. If you look at the electronic market you realize that multiple applications are cost sensitive and doesn’t need such high performance processor core. … Read More


ARM and the Law of Accelerating Returns!

ARM and the Law of Accelerating Returns!
by Daniel Nenni on 07-30-2015 at 4:00 pm

ARM is one of the companies I have had professional experience with during my storied semiconductor career so I know some of their history first hand. I worked for a physical IP company that was purchased by ARM and at Virage Logic we competed against ARM head-to-head. ARM is also featured in our book “Fabless: The Transformation … Read More


New Tool Suite to Accelerate SoC Integration

New Tool Suite to Accelerate SoC Integration
by Pawan Fangaria on 06-16-2015 at 12:30 pm

Today, an SoC is seen in the context of an optimized assembly of IPs; it’s no more a single monolithic chip design. It’s very common to see an ARM processor IP along with an interconnect IP, a memory IP, and couple of buses and interfaces IP in an SoC. Although the SoC seems to be an integrated collection of IPs, it can be very complex and… Read More

NFV opens gate for ARM server stampede

NFV opens gate for ARM server stampede
by Don Dingee on 05-20-2015 at 5:00 pm

A couple of years ago, our own Paul McLellan gave us a report on the 2013 Linley Microprocessor Conference with a provocative headline: “Server Shift to ARM Becomes a Stampede”, a title right off one of the Linley slides. 64-bit ARMv8 architecture was relatively new to the game, and ARM share in networking platforms was just a sliver… Read More


MediaTek Breaks the ‘Core’ Barrier, Again

MediaTek Breaks the ‘Core’ Barrier, Again
by Majeed Ahmad on 05-16-2015 at 7:00 am

Who says Asian companies can’t innovate? Just look at how Taiwan’s MediaTek Inc. has conceived a 64-bit system-on-chip (SoC) that features 10 Cortex-A cores in a tri-cluster configuration. MediaTek’s Helio X20 processor is also the first mobile SoC that boasts ARM’s latest CPU and GPU cores. Moreover,… Read More

Heterogeneous Processing: Power Reduction and Performance Advances

Heterogeneous Processing: Power Reduction and Performance Advances
by admin on 04-26-2015 at 7:00 pm

Implementation of Heterogeneous processors has shown demonstrated reduction in power consumption and improved performance in mobile processors like ARM_big.LITTLE technology, where low power and relatively slower cores are coupled with the more powerful ARM cores. According to ARM Holdings, it can save 75% of CPU energy… Read More


Apple’s ARMed History

Apple’s ARMed History
by Majeed Ahmad on 03-24-2015 at 7:00 pm

Apple has redefined three industries within a decade: media player with the iPod, mobile handset with the iPhone and portable computers with the iPad. If there is anything common in these three game-changing product development stories other than Apple, it’s the ARM footprint. Even now the technology media is abuzz with speculation… Read More
