The ARM® Cortex®-R7 and Cortex-R8 processors are the most advanced processors for modem and storage designs. One of the great things about the ARM architecture is the software compatibility between…
As we see the spectacular growth in connected devices required in low-power environment, manufacturers are turning to Arm Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M7 processors.
The main problemWhen assembling your first programs with AS, and linking it to external libraries like this :armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-as -o test.o test.Sarmv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-ld.gold --hash…
If you're using Cortex-M0+, I bet you miss some instructions from the more capable Thumb-2 instruction set. At least occasionally you have searched for routines from various places: books like Hacker…
If someone offered to sell your business server-compute cycles for one-tenth the going price, you might think there was a catch. But in this case you’d be wrong. Nathan Goulding is the senior vice president…
This week, we’ve been enjoying the temperate climate in Lowell, MA, while our ARM Cortex-M0 microcontrollers have been weathering a storm of radiation in the ‘Gamma Cave’ at UMass.
The next generation of Cortex-M processors are powered by Armv8-M architecture. This blog is a technical overview of enhancements in the new architecture and an introduction to TrustZone for Armv8-M.
The Arm v8-A architecture continues to evolve, with the additions developed through 2016 collectively known as Armv8.3-A. In this post we go through these in detail.
Prototyping an ARMv8-based design is similar to prototyping any other design. FPGA prototyping for these types of application is generally used to validate the hardware quickly to head into the software…
ArmTechCon 2016 is nearly upon us, and there’s so much high quality technical content in the conference programme and exhibition floor that the only difficulty you’ll have is choosing what to attend
Open standards foster innovation, collaboration and choice. This blog discusses how 3 open interconnect standards, AMBA, CCIX and Gen-Z, complement each other within the datacenter.
At the Linley Processor Conference earlier this week, I had the opportunity to present the challenges facing architects who are building hardware for distributed cloud intelligence. I also
discussed how…
A few weeks ago VORAGO Technologies issued a press release to announce that our VA10800 microcontroller had just surpassed 4000 hours of successful operation at 200C.
Functional safety is about ensuring that products operate safely and do so even when they go wrong. My colleague hopkins shares some insight on why you can’t choose to ignore it.
Arm Cortex-R52 addresses increases sophistication in safety applications which need higher levels of performance, greater support for functional safety and software separation.
The cat is out of the bag. There has been a lot of speculation around Apple’s plans to remove the headset jack for the iPhone 7. The recent announcement confirming this will now lead to innovation and…
Space radiation can cause different types of problems in an IC that are manifested as latch-up or Single Event Upsets (SEU). Latch-up can be immunized against by hardening the chip with a process enhancement…
Recently I spoke about a LZ4 decompression routine I converted from 6502 code into a Arm Cortex-M0 code. I could not find my decompression routine, so I decided to convert it again. The result is in this…
