ARM Holdings plc (Cambridge, England), a licensor of processor-related intellectual property, has disclosed plans for processor cores to be introduced into its Cortex range, codenamed Swift and Sparrow.
Swift is a low-cost, low-power follow-on to the Cortex M3 microcontroller and Sparrow is aimed at the real-time applications catered for by the Cortex-R family of cores, the company’s chief executive told analysts at a conference organized for analysts to discuss ARM’s fourth quarter and full year financial results.
“We are launching a new low-end product targeted at microcontrollers. We are talking with our partners about it right now. We do expect to do some licensing of that product right now,” said Warren East, president and CEO of ARM
