GOOGL--
STMicroelectronics (STM) has made a significant stride in the microcontroller (MCU) market with the introduction of its most powerful series to date, the STM32N6. This new series integrates embedded artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, setting a new standard for edge computing and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The STM32N6 is the first in the STM32 family to incorporate the Neural-ART Accelerator™ NPU, delivering 600 times more machine-learning performance than a high-end STM32 MCU without an NPU.
The STM32N6 is not only a breakthrough in AI capabilities but also boasts impressive processing power. It features a Cortex-M55 core running at 800 MHz, the largest embedded RAM on an STM32 (4.2 MB), and a 2.5D GPU with H.264 hardware encoder. These features, combined with a comprehensive ecosystem of tools and partners, make the STM32N6 a flagship MCU for edge AI applications.
The Neural-ART Accelerator in the STM32N6 offers unparalleled performance, with a power efficiency of 3 TOPS/W. This places it among the most power-efficient NPUs in the industry, outperforming competitors like the Google Coral Dev Board and Intel Movidius Neural Compute Stick. The Neural-ART Accelerator supports a broad range of AI operators from TensorFlow Lite, Keras, and ONNX, ensuring compatibility with the largest number of AI applications.
The STM32N6 is well-suited for various IoT and edge computing use cases, such as predictive maintenance, computer vision, voice control and audio processing, smart home devices, and wearable technology. Its low power consumption, small form factor, and real-time AI inference capabilities make it an ideal choice for developers seeking to create innovative, AI-driven solutions.
STMicroelectronics' latest offering is poised to revolutionize the MCU market, enabling real-time AI processing at the edge and opening new possibilities for IoT and edge computing applications. With its powerful processing capabilities, embedded AI, and comprehensive ecosystem, the STM32N6 is set to become a game-changer in the industry.
