Webinar: The fastest, lowest-cost route to developing mixed-signal SoCs

October 10th, 9am and 5pm BST

In this joint Arm and Mentor webinar, we will demonstrate how you can accelerate time-to-market with the fastest, easiest route to evaluate, prototype, and commercialize custom SoCs.

You will learn how to:

• Use the Tanner AMS tools to combine an analog sensor with an Arm® Cortex®-M0 processor
• Access industry-leading Arm processor and system IP for no upfront fee through Arm DesignStart
• Conduct mixed-signal simulation of the analog block with a digital interface module and connect it to the Cortex-M0
