Ambiq Apollo510 Lite SoC Enables Always‑On Edge AI with Dual‑Mode Bluetooth

Ambiq Apollo510 Lite SoC: Always‑On Edge AI with Dual‑Mode Bluetooth

Ambiq's new Apollo510 Lite series brings ultra‑low power edge AI to wearables, medical devices, industrial IoT, and smart buildings.

Built on Ambiq's SPOT® subthreshold platform, Apollo510 Lite delivers breakthrough energy efficiency for always‑on devices.

Performance and Efficiency for Edge AI

The SoC integrates an Arm Cortex‑M55 at up to 250 MHz with turboSPOT® and Helium™ for accelerated AI inference.

A dedicated Cortex‑M4F coprocessor (48/96 MHz) optimizes wireless stacks and sensor fusion.

Compared to M4/M33 alternatives, Apollo510 Lite offers up to 16× higher compute and up to 30× better AI energy efficiency.

Memory includes 2 MB RAM and 2 MB non‑volatile storage with dedicated instruction and data caches.

Connectivity, Security, and Product Variants

Advanced wireless: Bluetooth Low Energy 5.4 with +14 dBm TX power, and dual‑mode Bluetooth for classic and LE audio support.

Security: secureSPOT® 3.0 with Arm TrustZone®, secure boot, and authenticated firmware updates to protect device integrity.

Three SKUs: Apollo510 Lite (no RF), Apollo510B Lite (BLE), Apollo510D Lite (dual‑mode Bluetooth).

• Target applications: wearable health monitors, medical devices, IIoT sensors, and smart building systems.
• Key benefits: extended battery life, robust AI inference, reliable wireless range, and secure field updates.

Developers can deploy on‑device health analytics, sensor fusion, and voice recognition while preserving battery life.

Samples are available now and mass production is planned for Q1 2026.
