Today the ARM® Mali™-DP500 Display Processor was launched alongside the ARM Cortex®-A17.We are all aware that the resolution of screens is increasing: from Full HD smartphones and Quad…

The subject of digital filtering is vast but the basics can be understood fairly easily. In this post we cover this subject to help your understanding of the topic.

We will explore the fundamental macro-scale architectural structures and behaviors developers have to worry about, how this translates into possible problems which can be triggered by content.

While there has been tremendous progress in developing wireless technologies to meet the growing demands for high-bandwidth applications, video decoder applications have traditionally consumed a substantial…

Ordinarily the blog posts I write relate directly to whatever I have been working on recently. This one was inspired, or rather, specifically requested from my friend and colleague in Developer Relations…

Streamline, the profiling tool in DS-5, is a powerful tool for analysing system behaviour with proven results at both macro (system level interactions) and micro (CPU code hotspots) levels.Mental modelsStreamline…

Gain a deeper understanding of the ARM® Compiler and the optimization techniques it uses. By understanding how to control these optimizations, your code can benefit from speed increases, size savings…

I've just come back from spending two extremely informative days at Mobile Games Forum in London. An event that focuses on the business side of game development, it provides developers with the information…

Now that CES is done for another year, it is worth remembering that the diversity of solutions on display and the proliferation of new device experiences at ever lower costs is due to semiconductor vendors…

MDK uses the concept of Software packs for providing support for microcontroller devices and development boards. Software Packs can also contain software components such as drivers and middleware, including…

If you are a microcontroller designer working on Cortex-M processor based systems looking for an FPGA board for prototyping, I have a great news for you: ARM has released a new FPGA board, the Cortex-M…

Hi I'm very excited to announce of the release of a new product we have been working on for the last few months called the Cortex-M Prototyping System, as part of the Versatile Express family of products…

ARM shone at CES this year and there have already been some fantastic pieces of coverage on our community about it - check out Latest ARM powered tech at CES 2014 with Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and…

Over the last five years, one of the concerning things about virtual prototyping has been the separation between speed and accuracy. The lack of any meaningful connections between models built for speed…

It has been a little more than a year ago since I got my Surface RT tablet from the Microsoft BUILD event and I have committed myself to use it as my only computing companion device (other than my smartphone…

Hello and Happy New Year! So, here we are at the beginning of another new year preparing for Mobile Game Forum (MGF) in the Centre of London.  This event is well attended by developers, game engine providers…

You may have seen that ARM has been developing some low level trusted firmware to provide reference code that supports Secure World software on the latest v8A technology based chips.   The software is…

There are 10 easy steps that can be followed to ensure that the right choice is made for a microcontroller. See the full list in this post.

It often surprises me how many people believe that “ARM doesn’t do division” or “ARM cores don’t have divide hardware”. Of course, that used to be the case – up until the launch of the Cortex brand in…

This blog post was written in conjunction with Ittiam Systems, a technology company singularly focused on embedded media centric systems. For more information concerning the technology below, please contact…

We would like to share with you an Android-based application that enables Intel software on ARM-based devices. To demo you this approach we took Intel version of DOOM and run it on Android-based device…
