Arm Expands Cortex-M Portfolio to Bring Artificial Intelligence to Ultra-Small Endpoint Devices

Update time : 2023-12-27 11:54:50

Arm Holdings, Inc. today announced the Arm® Cortex®-M52 processor designed for Artificial Intelligence for Internet of Things (AIoT) applications, delivering digital signal processing (DSP) and machine learning (ML) performance improvements that avoid the costly overhead of using dedicated DSPs and ML gas pedals. The Cortex-M52 will unlock the full potential of ML in embedded computing solutions by outperforming the current market price point.

Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLM) are getting a lot of attention right now, but what most people don't realize is that AI is already being deployed in a wide range of embedded devices and is impacting a number of applications in the home, cities, and industry, also known as the AI Internet of Things, for which the Arm architecture is a cornerstone," said Paul Williamson, senior vice president and general manager of Arm's Internet of Things business unit. As AIoT technologies evolve, intelligence on the device side is being deployed in smaller, more cost-sensitive and often battery-powered devices at the lowest possible cost, with greater privacy and reliability as the endpoints rely less on the cloud," said Paul Williamson, senior vice president and general manager of the IoT Business Unit at Arm. As shipments of AI-powered IoT devices continue to grow, so does the demand from our partners in terms of ML functionality and streamlining the development process to empower them with the flexibility to innovate and scale quickly." Traditional embedded developers need to master the math, data analytics, toolchain expertise and programming skills required for AI. And to increase shipments of AIoT devices, developer engagement is critical. With the Cortex-M52, Arm provides the key features and functionality needed to modernize the development process.
In the past, it was often necessary to combine the CPU, DSP and NPU to achieve the ML and DSP performance offered by the Cortex-M52, but in doing so, developers were required to write, debug and tweak code on the chip using three different toolchains, compilers and debuggers once the hardware was ready. Now, with the industry-standard and easy-to-use Cortex-M portfolio, Arm is making AI available on a single toolchain and a single validated architecture, ensuring a consistent development flow for what used to be traditional, DSP and ML workloads, and specific integrations and optimizations for leading ML frameworks will ensure a seamless and smooth development experience for developers, and The Cortex-M52 is fully software compatible with the Cortex-M55 and Cortex-M85, enabling developers to benefit from the growing software and tools ecosystem around Helium, as well as leverage the free software libraries and rich knowledge base from Arm's partner ecosystem. To help simplify and accelerate the IoT and embedded development process, the Cortex-M52 is also available as Arm Virtual Hardware, a cloud-based solution that enables software development to begin before the chip is ready.
The Cortex-M52, previously known as the "Star" STAR-MC2 in the Chinese market, is a collaborative product between Arm and the R&D and engineering teams at Ammo Technology. arm is a cornerstone of AIoT. arm and its partners recognized the need to Arm and its partners recognized the need to provide the DSP and ML compute performance required for low-power embedded applications at a lower cost and with better accessibility. The Cortex-M52 CPU was developed for this application, bringing higher levels of AI inference performance to ultra-small devices and enabling the industry to further scale the deployment of IoT devices.
