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


What is Real SAMV71 DSP Performance in Auto Audio?

What is Real SAMV71 DSP Performance in Auto Audio?
by Eric Esteve on 05-06-2015 at 2:33 am

Why selecting ARM Cortex-M7 processor based Atmel SAMV70/71 for automotive entertainment application? The top three reasons are the Cortex-M7 clock speed (300 Mhz), the integration of a floating point (FPU) DSP and, last but not least because Atmel SAMV70/71 has obtained automotive qualification. If you dig into SAMV70/71… 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

Archives from TI’s Baseband Glory – Part 1
by Majeed Ahmad on 04-08-2015 at 7:30 pm

In 1992, nearly two years after Britain’s Acorn Computers joined hands with Apple and VLSI to create Advanced RISC Machines or ARM, the semiconductor upstart landed its first major licensing breakthrough. In retrospect, while Apple’s Newton handheld computer had played a key role in creating the ARM venture, Texas… 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


ARM & Cadence IP Partnership for Faster SoC Design

ARM & Cadence IP Partnership for Faster SoC Design
by Eric Esteve on 03-18-2015 at 9:50 am

IP vendors always try to create differentiation, especially when designing protocol based IP. You can differentiate by building the most performing controller but you will probably miss the expectation of these customers who don’t search for performance but just compliance to a specific standard. Or the vendor may want to design… Read More


Simply the Highest Performing Cortex-M MCU

Simply the Highest Performing Cortex-M MCU
by Eric Esteve on 02-22-2015 at 11:30 am

If you target high growth markets like wearable (Sport Watches, Fitness Bands, Wearable medical) industrial (mPOS, Telematics, etc.) or Smart Appliances, you expect using a power efficient MCU delivering high DMIPs count. We are talking about systems requiring a low Bill of Material (BoM) both in term of cost and devices count.… Read More


IoT Sensor Node Designs Call for Highly Integrated Flows

IoT Sensor Node Designs Call for Highly Integrated Flows
by Tom Simon on 02-21-2015 at 7:00 pm

Applications for IoT sensors are becoming more sophisticated, especially for industrial usage. Building optimal sensors for different applications requires multi-domain design, optimization and verification flows. The sensor devices are usually MEMS, and as such have electrical properties that need to be tailored to … Read More
