Infineon PSoC Edge Microcontrollers introduce a powerful new class of embedded intelligence, combining high-performance Arm® Cortex® cores with AI/ML acceleration and native 2.4 GHz wireless support. Built for the growing demands of always-on sensing and edge intelligence, these microcontrollers balance real-time performance with ultra-low power consumption—ideal for next-generation IoT, industrial, and consumer applications.

Key Performance Specifications:

  • Dual-Core Architecture:Combines an Arm Cortex-M55 core (400 MHz) for high-performance ML tasks with an Arm Cortex-M33 core (150 MHz) for efficient control operations.Integrated AI Acceleration:Includes Arm Ethos-U55 NPU and a dedicated lightweight neural processor for sensor fusion and always-on inference in low-power states.Memory Options:Up to 2 MB of SRAM and scalable Flash/NVM configurations to support complex applications and ML model storage.2.4 GHz Wireless Connectivity:Native support for Bluetooth® Low Energy and IEEE 802.15.4 protocols including Matter, Thread, and Zigbee enables seamless edge-to-cloud communication without external radios.Security Features:Hardware-based root of trust, Secure Boot, TrustZone® isolation, and lifecycle management meet modern security standards for connected devices.

  • Target Applications:

    PSoC Edge MCUs are tailored for embedded systems that require a mix of real-time processing, machine learning, and wireless communication—without sacrificing power efficiency. Use cases include:

  • Always-on voice recognition and wake-word detectionPredictive maintenance and smart sensing in industrial IoTSmart home hubs and edge computing devicesLow-latency wearable AI/ML applications

  • Development Ecosystem:

    PSoC Edge is fully supported by ModusToolbox™, Infineon’s open-source development platform. Within ModusToolbox, Imagimob’s DeepCraf Studio provides end-to-end tools for collecting data, training, converting, and deploying ML models onto the MCU—whether you’re importing a TensorFlow Lite model or starting from scratch with raw sensor data.

    Evaluation and Availability:

    Early access to hardware is currently available for qualified partners via direct engagement with Infineon. A public market launch is expected by mid-2025, with kits accessible through Infineon’s authorised distributors.
