The exhibition Computex 2014 in Taipei British company ARM announced the opening of its first Asian to center design processors. This Taiwanese center will focus on developing the next generation of nuclear class Cortex-M for use in wearable electronics and a variety of devices produced in the frames of the concept of the Internet of things.
Initially, in 2014, a team of experts will consist of 40-50 people, and later as needed will be expanded with new people. A significant part of the press conference was devoted to the rapid growth in demand for ARM processors in various segments of the electronic device. Focused on the use of chips Cortex-M within an ecosystem - at the moment of such processors were delivered more than 16 billion for a variety of embedded applications.
ARM considers Taiwan as a central hub industry - in this region has a plurality of semiconductor partners British company. That is why the island was chosen as the most suitable place to create a fourth chip design center ARM. In order to continue the growth of its influence and scale ecosystem ARM plans to collaborate with research institutions to get the right people in the development of chips.
Because of growing interest to the wearable electronics key areas of impact of the new design center ARM processors should result in two segments: sensors based on inexpensive wearable electronics and high-end solutions for the medical and professional markets, requiring more serious data from the sensors.
ARM also mentioned the ongoing development of MBED - platform for developers of embedded solutions, including the operating system and a set of tools designed to help quickly bring a variety of ideas. Platform should be fully open and the library and web based tools designed to simplify the integration and collaboration of microcontrollers, radios, sensors and software stacks.
