Last week at the ExCeL Conference Centre in London, ARM were in attendance at The Big Bang Fair, an event targeted at children and young adults interested in finding out more about ‘everything from robotics to nuclear reactors and from pharmacology to physics.’ ARM was a Corporate Sponsor at the event, appearing on the show floor alongside so...

As usual it happened late on Friday afternoon. A couple of weeks ago a message arrived in my inbox from one of our latest ARM® Cortex™-M0+ partners: “We’re using 90LP and a similar configuration to your “min” with just a couple of additional and relatively small options and we can’t match your reported dynamic consumption (11.2µW/MH...

2012 has been another great year for ARM, with the company achieving record revenues and profits. In 2012, ARM’s royalty revenues continued to benefit from the proliferation of mobile computing devices, like smartphones and tablets, and from everyday devices becoming increasingly smart and connected. This trend for smarter and more power...

Cool Compute – Is Now the Time to Harness Mobile GPU Compute?
Modern mobile GPU architectures, such as ARM®’s, endorse parallelism as the route to deliver the performance and power efficiency essential to push the growing number of pixels required to put compelling applications on our screens. But can all this power efficient GPU perfor...

A very shiny Cadillac with a chrome “ELR” badge on the back is parked outside the Fortune Brainstorm Green event. ELR, because this is an electric Cadillac sports coupe. As I drove to the venue from the Los Angeles airport, I spotted Chevrolet Volts, a Nissan Leaf and even a few of the new Tesla Saloons. To me this was a visible s...

Taking a major step forward for advanced-node semiconductor design, ARM and Cadence recently (April 4, 2013) announced the first implementation of an ARM® Cortex^TM-A57 processor on the TSMC 16nm FinFET manufacturing process. Here’s a closer look at this groundbreaking test chip project, which used a complete Cadence Encounter RTL-to-signof...

ARM NEON™ technology is widely used for multimedia optimization. The SIMD architecture of NEON technology makes it very suitable for many compute intensive modules in multimedia codecs such as filtering, de-blocking etc. This blog explores effective coding techniques to enhance performance of an audio/video codec.

The compression algorit...
