When we designed the M‑Profile Vector Extensions (MVE), known as Arm Helium technology for the Arm Cortex-M processor series, we wanted to make it a good fit for a wide variety of digital signal processing (DSP) applications. The ability to perform computation…

In the first part of this blog series, I explained the “beatwise” execution that’s at the heart of Helium technology (also known as the M-profile Vector Extensions / MVE). There’s some useful background information in that post, so it’s worth looking at…

Today, we’re excited about the announcement of the M‑profile vector extensions (MVE) for the Armv8‑M, which started in Arm’s research group several years ago. When we were asked to increase the DSP performance of
Arm Cortex‑M processors, naturally…
