Overview

The AHB Low Power Subsystem is an AMBA® based system that is useful as the basic digital infrastructure for building low power SOCs. The subsystem contains a flexible Power Management Unit that controls the power sequence of the CPU as well as the APB peripherals. The PMU can easily be extended to control additional cores, peripherals and even mixed signal subsystems on the same SOC.

The AHB Low Power Subsystem includes a standard set of peripherals and cores that supports RTOS and software kernels. The package includes software for boot code, interrupt handlers and driver code.

The AHB Low Power Subsystem is soft IP that can be used in all the popular semiconductor technology nodes.

Announcing Arm AGI CPU: The silicon foundation for the agentic AI cloud era

For the first time in our more than 35-year history, Arm is delivering its own silicon products – extending the Arm Neoverse platform beyond IP and Arm Compute Subsystems (CSS) to give customers greater choice in how they deploy Arm compute – from building custom silicon to integrating platform-level solutions or deploying Arm-designed processors.

Encarsia: Evaluating CPU Fuzzers via Automatic Bug Injection

Hardware fuzzing has recently gained momentum with many discovered bugs in open-source RISC-V CPU designs. Comparing the effectiveness of different hardware fuzzers, however, remains a challenge: each fuzzer optimizes for a different metric and is demonstrated on different CPU designs.

Pie: Pooling CPU Memory for LLM Inference

Pie maintains low computation latency, high throughput, and high elasticity. Our experimental evaluation demonstrates that Pie achieves optimal swapping policy during cache warmup and effectively balances increased memory capacity with negligible impact on computation. With its extended capacity, Pie outperforms vLLM by up to 1.9X in throughput and 2X in latency. Additionally, Pie can reduce GPU memory usage by up to 1.67X while maintaining the same performance. Compared to FlexGen, an offline profiling-based swapping solution, Pie achieves magnitudes lower latency and 9.4X higher throughput.
