ARM is extending its work on ISO 26262 safety packages for automotive systems beyond the Cortex-R devices supported in a documentation release earlier this year.

Texas Instruments has launched a family of ARM-based microcontrollers intended to act as a migration path from its low-energy 16bit MSP430 series, developing its own flash-capable 90nm process to implement them.

ARM and Cadence have signed a deal that provides the IP teams at both companies with access to each other's cores.

Foundry veteran Simon Yang told Semicon China while things are looking up the country cannot count on ‘traditional’ methods or advantages if it's to be a major chipmaker.

Unsettled by attacks on embedded devices such as the point-of-sale terminals used by retailers such as Target and the potential for hackers to target critical infrastructure, the industry focused squarely on security at this year’s Embedded World in Nürnberg, Germany.

A variety of organizations used Embedded World to introduce kits to attract a broader base of developers looking at Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

The $99 discount registration price for Cadence's main US user conference will no longer be available after Friday (February 20)

ARM has launched a 64bit processor core aimed at high-end mobile phones, coupled to a new graphics processor and cache-coherent interconnect.

ARM has picked up TÜV Süd certification for a version of its C compiler and produced an ISO 26262 documentation pack for the Cortex-R5 processor

Research by the University of Michigan into subthreshold circuit design has led to spinoff company Ambiq Micro creating a family of microcontrollers that it claims provide an ARM Cortex-M4F with power consumption at levels normally associated with an M0+.
