Industry’s first floating-point benchmark suite
The Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium have announced a new benchmark suite that tracks the performance of embedded processors with floating-point hardware units,FPMark. FPUs are an increasingly popular and necessary feature to support graphics, audio, motor control, and many other high-end processing tasks. The EEMBC FPMark allows users to evaluate FPU performance on the basis of consistent and controlled data, delivering honest, relia...

Alf-Egil Bogen explores the shift to 32-bit MCUs in the embedded world
Alf-Egil Bogen, Chief Marketing Officer of Energy Micro, talks about the migration from AVR to ARM based microcontrollers over decades. It is interesting to see how microprocessor architectures have gone from being a significant differentiator to being a “not important” factor. Being one of the inventors of the AVR the transition to ARM has been a long journey. How long will this trend last and what is next?
