32-bit ARM Cortex-M7 processor for high performance microcontrollers

25.09.2014

ARM has unveiled a 32-bit Cortex-M family of processors that will double the performance of microcontrollers compared to currently available ARM-based microcontrollers in both computing and DSP. More specifically, the performance of the Cortex-M7 is rated at 5 CoreMark points per 1 MHz of clock speed.

The application areas of ARM Cortex-M7 include embedded high-end solutions for vehicles, industrial automation systems, and smart homes. It is assumed that the increased performance of the Cortex-M7, which allows for faster analysis of audio and visual information and speech recognition, will be immediately noticed by consumers.

ARM Cortex-M7 features include a six-stage superscalar pipeline, an in-system AXI interface with 64-bit transfer support, and fully integrated optional instruction and data caches. In addition, it should be noted the built-in memory interfaces and the possibility of flexible configuration during implementation, which allows you to get a wide range of products that differ in cost and performance.

Optionally, you can integrate command and data tracing tools; it also provides for the embedding of data protection and integrity, which expands the scope of the Cortex-M7. The advantages of the novelty include compatibility with other Cortex-M processors at the level of the software model and binary codes.

The novelty has already been licensed by Atmel, Freescale and ST Microelectronics. It remains to be added that last year ARM partners shipped approximately 3 billion microcontrollers based on the ARM architecture.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Powerful quantum microscope 21.06.2021

An Australian-German team of scientists has created a revolutionary quantum microscope that allows us to observe biological structures that would otherwise be impossible to see.

The new microscope uses quantum entanglement, an unusual kind of interaction between the photons that make up a laser beam. The device makes it possible to observe biological structures that otherwise would not be possible to study. It also provides faster image processing speed.

The correlations allow the visualization of molecular bonds within the cell with a 35% improved signal-to-noise ratio compared to conventional microscopy, corresponding to a 14% increase in concentration sensitivity.

The characteristics of light microscopes are limited by the nature of light. Photon detection results in shot noise that severely limits sensitivity, resolution, and speed. Although the long-established solution to this problem is to increase the intensity of the illuminating light, this is not always possible in the study of living systems, because bright lasers can seriously disrupt biological processes.

Scientists have shown that quantum correlations allow a signal-to-noise ratio that exceeds the photodamage limit of traditional microscopy.
