How to improve the end user’s IoT experience using AP Memory’s solutionsRicher embedded IoT experiences drive the need for more external onboard memory. AP Memory solutions can enable these modern capabilities quickly and more efficiently.
Rapidly advancing IoT continues to revolutionize and enhance the everyday experience for consumers and industry, especially with the demand for increased processing power at the edge. Fitness trackers, smart speakers, agriculture, factory machines are all such examples. The specific application, whether it be a wearable, mobile, smart home, smart factory, vehicle infotainment, dictates the memory requirements. The addition of AI / ML into these applications further changes memory needs, typically demanding more and higher bandwidth memory. The need for IoT applications to maintain constrained physical form factors, power thermal envelopes, and same-to-lower BOM costs, creates additional design constraints. The question of what an ideal memory candidate should be for these applications, is now front and center of many product teams, with new memory types being proposed and researched. AP Memory IoT RAM memory solutions, based on PSRAM technology, already work seamlessly with many existing MCUs / SoCs / FPGAs that are prevalent in IoT / embedded devices, solving the need for additional external memory, while making it easier for designers to adhere to their product design constraints.
