Give it a listen.....

Now that they have the bits and pieces, the S2, the algos, the context classification, the refrence designs, they can have nice show and tell.  Build that ecosystem with names, both big OEM,s and the kickstarters with good ideas.  Help them all.


Can be skipped as it can cause a digression headache. But digressive reading IS VERY useful.
Here are the tidbits I got for the time….
“The power delta between M0 and M4 is so small, and the M4 will execute faster and so shut off more quickly,” said Salas.
Add in the stuff from NXP dual core.
Can’t do fusion.
And the M4 is more responsive.
The M0+ alone or in a dual core is NOT much of a product.
The F in M4F indicates the CPU has floating point extensions. “This is tremendously valuable for the IoT where sensors are on all the time. Floating point helps with the analytics algorithms,” said Salas. “The other bonus is that customers who use Matlab generally have to take the code and convert to fixed-point for smaller code and lower energy. We save customers the float-to-fixed conversion.” – See more at:
See they NEED that FPU. QUIK will have 2 math units in their design.
So again if there are ways to further cut the power for the roadmap, with new technologies that are ready for prime time- QUIK has it on their R & D bench. They hired for that skill set last yr.
