DigiKey has unveiled the latest microprocessors from STMicroelectronics, the STM32MP25 series, which are poised to enhance capabilities in high-end edge computing applications. This announcement reflects a significant advancement in technology aimed at sectors such as smart factories, smart healthcare, smart buildings, and smart infrastructure.
The STM32MP25 microprocessors feature an industrial-grade design, available in either single or dual configurations of 64-bit Arm Cortex-A35 cores. They serve as a robust platform tailored for Industry 4.0 applications, while also accommodating advanced edge AI functionalities. The integration of a dedicated neural processing unit within the microprocessors enables an impressive processing capacity of up to 1.35 trillion operations per second (TOPS), making them an attractive option for edge AI tasks and enhancing security measures.
Sean Sorteberg, director of multi-market semiconductor at DigiKey, highlighted the benefits customers derive from the partnership with STMicroelectronics. "DigiKey customers have benefited from our collaboration with STMicroelectronics, and we look forward to offering them the latest technology solutions to navigate complex security challenges, fulfil IoT connectivity needs and enable developers to innovate," he stated.
Loris Valenti, vice president of the microcontroller, digital and RF product group for the Americas at STMicroelectronics, also shared insights on the potential of the new microprocessors. He noted, "The STM32MP25 microprocessors efficiently address the need for more intelligence and processing capability in connected edge IoT devices."
As industries continue to evolve towards more automated and intelligent systems, the introduction of the STM32MP25 microprocessors marks a pivotal move in addressing the growing demand for sophisticated processing power and security in the expanding Internet of Things (IoT) landscape.
