Data centers are often seen as battlegrounds among the three major CPU architectures (x86, Arm, RISC-V) and GPUs from Nvidia, AMD, and specialized ASIC vendors. The Arm architecture has already ...

Discussions about CPUs often frame one instruction set architecture (ISA) against another—x86 vs. Arm, Arm vs. RISC-V, and so on. However, it’s common to use multiple CPU architectures in a single ...

Arm Holdings has announced a major rebranding initiative and confirmed plans to enter the chip design space—a strategic pivot that could position the UK-based architecture firm in direct competition..

The STM32F401XD/XE family is based on the ARM 32-bit Cortex-M4 core with FPU and adaptive real-time accelerator. It features up 512 kB of flash memory and 96 kB of SRAM. It has debug mode and offers ...

[bogdanthegeek] has a lot of experience with the ARM platform, and their latest escapade into working with cheap ARM chips recovered from disposable vapes involved a realization that it was just plain ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Dave Altavilla is a Tech Analyst covering chips, compute and AI. For decades, chip architectures have been dominated by a pair of ...

RISC-V, an open instruction set architecture (ISA), is reshaping the global computing landscape. Unlike proprietary ISAs such as x86, widely used by Intel and AMD, or ARM, which dominates mobile and ...

Arm’s low growth rates in China could be due to the growing adoption of RISC-V, which is supported by the Chinese government. China’s support for RISC-V is bearing fruit with the introduction of the ...

Benchmarking tool Geekbench has been updated to version 6.4, seeing added support for RISC-V Vector Extensions and Arm Scalable Matrix Extensions. Geekbench is a highly-used benchmark tool, providing ...

In brief: China is making a major push for RISC-V processor designs as it intensifies efforts to reduce reliance on Western semiconductor technology. New government policies appear to be shifting the ...
