Today, most embedded systems still use 32-bit MCUs, as many companies find that they are sufficient for their applications today and in the foreseeable future. A few companies are starting to use high ...

ARM has introduced its first 64-bit microprocessor architecture, ARMv8, which should enable wider use of ARM chips in servers and other enterprise equipment and turn up the competitive heat on Intel.

In terms of its capabilities and performance, the Cortex-A35 is a 64-bit processor that is fully compatible with ARM’s other Cortex designs. It uses around 10% less power than the Cortex-A7 ...

ARM first launched the 64-bit ARM V8 architecture in 2011, providing the foundation for development of the 64-bit cores themselves. Those chips, the ARM Cortex A57 and A53, launched in 2012.

With version 9.10, the toolchain supports the Armv8-A execution model AArch64 and the Arm AArch-64 data models ILP32 and LP64, and is compatible with the Arm AEABI 64-bit and the C++ IA64 ABI and ...

On paper, getting x86-64 emulation into ARM is absolutely a big deal. Customers resist being stuck in situations where a piece of software they need to run might be incompatible with their processor.

Findings from the Semicast study on the global market for 32/64-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) and embedded microprocessors (eMPUs) show that automotive and industrial (including medical) applications ...

From smartphones, tablets and servers, ARM’s 64-bit processors could soon spread to multifunction printers, storage and networking devices. Chip maker AppliedMicro early next month will announce ...

Microsoft has announced that 64-bit app emulation is coming to Windows on Arm next month. It allows users to run more legacy 64-bit Windows apps, such as games and editing tools.
