“The latest benchmark for the new ARM Cortex-M7 core is an additional proof of our world-leading performance for ARM,” says Thomas Sporrong, Global FAE Manager, IAR Systems. “While providing advanced optimizations on multiple levels, our tools are easy to use and offer smart features such as runtime analysis, data visualization, code profiling and integrated monitoring of power consumption. This lets our customers create the fastest, most compact applications and helps them keep up with project deadlines.”
“Together with ARM and their new high-performance core we have reached a new milestone for ARM Cortex-M processors with a score above 5 CoreMarks/MHz. This not only shows the capabilities of our optimization team, but also the power of strong partnerships,” says Stefan Skarin, CEO, IAR Systems. “Anyone looking at working with a microcontroller based on any of the ARM Cortex-M cores can be sure we are committed to supporting them with high-performance tools, a powerful ecosystem and a dedicated support and sales team eager to be of service.”
CoreMark was developed by EEMBC, a non-profit industry association for embedded microprocessor benchmarks. CoreMark is a simple, yet sophisticated, benchmark that is designed specifically to test the functionality of a processor core. Running CoreMark produces a single-number score allowing users to make quick comparisons between processors. Scores are published at www.coremark.org.
