Overview
Build low cost, highly efficient AI solutions in a wide range of embedded devices with Arm’s latest addition to the Ethos-U microNPU family. The Ethos-U65 maintains the power efficiency of the Arm Ethos-U55, while extending its applicability to Arm Cortex-A and Arm Neoverse-based systems and at the same time delivers twice the on-device machine learning (ML) performance.
Key features
- Extending Performance and Efficiency
- Unlock new vision and voice use cases in minimum area with 2x performance uplift (over Ethos-U55) and reach 1 TOP/s in 0.6mm2(in 16nm).
- Flexible Integration
- Build low-cost, highly efficient systems with rich OS and DRAM support in Cortex-A systems and on BareMetal or RTOS SRAM/FLASH systems on Cortex-M, with the highly successful Ethos-U architecture.
- Unified Software and Tools
- Develop, deploy, and debug endpoint AI applications faster using a common toolchain across Arm Cortex and Ethos-U processors.
- Enhanced Design
- Supports popular networks with extended operator support, provides wider AXI interfaces, and improves reliability with ECC added into internal RAMs.
