TI expands microcontroller portfolio and software ecosystem to enable edge AI in every device

New MCUs with the TinyEngine™ NPU join TI’s comprehensive portfolio of AI-enabled hardware, software and tools, allowing engineers to deploy intelligence anywhere

Texas Instruments (TI) today introduced two new microcontroller (MCU) families with edge artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, supporting the company’s commitment to enabling edge AI across its entire embedded processing portfolio. The MSPM0G5187 and AM13Ex MCUs integrate TI’s TinyEngine neural processing unit (NPU), a dedicated hardware accelerator for MCUs that optimizes deep learning inference operations to reduce latency and improve energy efficiency when processing at the edge. 

TI is integrating the TinyEngine NPU across its entire microcontroller portfolio, including general-purpose and high-performance, real-time MCUs.
