Low power Arm Cortex-M55 powered AI edge SoC for smart anything IoT applications

Low power semiconductor chip maker Ambiq announced launch of the Apollo330 Plus System-on-Chip (SoC) series consisting of the base Apollo330 Plus, the Apollo330B Plus, and the Apollo330M Plus. Built on Ambiq’s proprietary subthreshold power optimized technology (SPOT) platform, these chips deliver 16x faster performance and up to 30x better AI energy efficiency compared to similar solutions based on previous generation Cortex-M processors, claims Ambiq. Ambiq says it has democratizes Edge AI with these Apollo330 Plus Series SoCs.

Key Features: 

Apollo330 Plus architecture fully leverages up to 250 MHz Arm Cortex-M55 processor with Arm Helium technology for AI acceleration, processing up to 8 MACs per cycle. The Apollo330 Plus series includes 2MB of on-chip system RAM, 2MB of embedded non-volatile memory, a large 32kB I-cache and 32kB D-cache on a wide bus, and a multi-protocol radio for developers to create high-performing and power-efficient products
