Arm Cortex-M55 Processor

The new Arm Cortex-M55 processor brings endpoint artificial intelligence (AI) to billions.

Overview

The new Arm Cortex-M55 processor brings endpoint artificial intelligence (AI) to billions. It’s Arm’s most AI-capable Cortex-M processor and the first to feature Arm Helium vector processing technology for enhanced, energy-efficient digital signal processing (DSP) and machine learning (ML) performance. The Cortex-M55 offers an easy way to implement AI for IoT with the ease-of-use of Cortex-M, a single toolchain, optimized software libraries, and an industry-leading embedded ecosystem.

Key features

  • Improve ML and DSP Performance
    • Delivers up to 15x ML performance improvement and up to 5x signal processing performance uplift compared to existing Cortex-M processors.
  • Accelerate Time to Market
    • The Corstone-300 reference design offers the fastest, most secure way to incorporate the Cortex-M55 into a system-on-chip (SoC).
  • Simplify Software Development
    • Single developer toolchain supported by a broad ecosystem of software, tools, libraries, and resources.

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.

Top 5 Reasons why CPU is the Best Processor for AI Inference

Advanced artificial intelligence (AI), like generative AI, is enhancing all our smart devices. However, a common misconception is that these AI workloads can only be processed in the cloud and data center. In fact, the majority of AI inference workloads, which are cheaper and faster to run than training, can be processed at the edge – on the actual devices.
