There is a need for more efficient, optimized solutions from edge to core. Arm Cortex A-Series processors with CoreLink System IP provide a common architecture across the spectrum.

George Santayana first proclaimed “Those who do not heed history are doomed to repeat it” over a hundred years ago, and it remains highly relevant today to those who are tackling the issue of developing…

Let me be the first one to put my hand up and say it: it took me a while to wrap my head around IP. I am a relative newcomer to this industry, having studied business in university instead of engineering…

Last week I attended ARM TechCon in Santa Clara and one of the topics covered sparked my interest for this blog – wearables.Did you know that Wearable Technology represents the fastest growing device segment…

Cortex-M3 and later have a CLZ instruction which counts leading zeroes. But Cortex-M0 does not have an instruction for this. Instead you must use a provided subroutine or write your own. Let's try rolling…
