Not everybody has access to an Infiniband-backed supercomputer, but anyone can launch a fleet of EC2 GPU instances for a few dollars per hour. Can we get similar speedups in the cloud? I decided to find…

This is the demo project for Tibbo's MQTT library. The project demonstrates how easy it is to create sophisticated network-enabled applications in Tibbo BASIC and Tibbo C. The code is extremely simple…

Power management is important, and has become increasingly complex. Recently, we have created an application note. See details below. Hopefully, you will find it useful.PurposeProvides high-level considerations…

This blog is the second in a series on the new debug features in SOMNIUM DRT. The first one was about the live expression view.Debugging is difficult, especially when unexpected errors cause the program…

Additional core supportDS-5 v5.25 Professional and Ultimate Editions support cache visibility for Cortex-A5 and Cortex-A7 cores. Ultimate Edition also supports cache and MMU visibility for Cortex-A73,…

The ARM Embedded Logic Analyzer (ELA) brings particular challenges to a debugger. The flexibility of the ELA and the broad range of implementation choices and potential uses, all place demands on a debugger…

In order to keep costs, power consumption, and size to a minimum, many embedded products based on ARM Cortex-R cores have limited on-chip memory. In particular, the size of the Tightly Coupled Memory …

In DS-5 v5.24, we added the Stack View to the debugger. This view displays stack information that used to be displayed in the Debug Control View, giving two advantages. Firstly, the Debug Control View…

The CoreSight cross-trigger network in a SoC is created from two components: Cross Trigger Matrix (CTM) devices form the backbone of the network and transport events around the SoC; and Cross Trigger…

What to look out for when selecting an Embedded Process Monitor.When selecting an embedded Process Monitor for use within your digital SoC it is important to make sure it ticks certain boxes.Understanding…

Your health data is one of most personal and confidential pieces of data. Unfortunately it can also have potential malicious uses.

The VA10820 microcontroller was created to give designers a guaranteed rad-hard ARM Cortex-M0 that will operate reliably in space, at a fraction of the cost of an old-school space market FPGA.

Meet Microduino, the Chinese company that is bringing a DIY approach to rapid prototyping for developers and engineers.

Ok I did it. I downloaded Pokemon Go. Yes I was trying to resist, yes it was futile, yes it’s an awesome concept. Whilst a strong believer in Virtual Reality as a driving force in how we will handle much…

Some devices, applications or use cases require the absolute peak of performance capability in order to deliver on their requirements. Some devices, applications or use cases however, need to save every…

SemiWiki's book PROTOTYPICAL: The Emergence of FPGA-Based Prototyping for SoC Design explores ARM’s role in FPGA prototyping technology. Read an excerpt here.

Ada is a general purpose language that has been designed to address the needs of embedded systems. In this blog we present the qualities which make Ada a powerful tool for embedded programming.

We recently launched our highest performance GPU to date, Mali-G71. Based on our brand new Bifrost architecture it represents a new era of graphics processing and is designed to support next generation…

This interview at the IOT Devcon turned into a mini-connectivity training discussion with Vivek Mohan from Silicon Labs. Here are the questions answered by Vivek concerning iot connectivity> How are standards…

ARM is introducing a new processor-specific ELF section attribute flag SHF_ARM_PURECODE. This attribute aims to facilitate the separation of instructions and data in program's memory when targeting micro…

Learn the entire process of setting up the chain of trust for your IoT solution. The video, which is available on YouTube, provides a practical example that you can follow and setup on your own computer…
