Apollo510 Lite Series Ultra-Low Power System on Chip

The Apollo510 Lite series system on chip (SoC) is an ultra-low power, high-performance microcontroller from Ambiq, engineered for next-generation edge devices that demand seamless wireless connectivity, graphical performance, and AI capability. Built on proprietary Ambiq Subthreshold Power Optimized Technology (SPOT®) platform, the Apollo510 Lite series delivers excellent energy efficiency, enabling battery-powered devices to run longer and smarter at the edge.

Powered by a 32-bit Arm Cortex-M55 application processor running up to 250 MHz with turboSPOT® and Helium technology, the Apollo510 Lite series delivers exceptional on-device AI inferencing performance for always-on voice, gesture, and sensor-based AI applications. A dedicated network coprocessor (in wireless variants) supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5.4 and Bluetooth Classic, ensuring universal wireless compatibility with legacy devices and audio features.

The Apollo510 Lite series consists of three variants: the base Apollo510 Lite, the Apollo510B Lite, and the Apollo510D. The base Apollo510 Lite targets applications with no wireless radio. The Apollo510B Lite adds Bluetooth Low Energy 5.4 for connected peripherals. The Apollo510D Lite provides full dual-mode Bluetooth support for both BLE 5.4 and Bluetooth Classic, including Classic and LE Audio streaming applications. All variants feature an integrated 2D/2.5D GPU with anti-aliasing and hardware vector graphics acceleration via graphiqSPOT, enabling crisp, responsive displays without sacrificing battery life.

Backed by secureSPOT® 3.0 based on Arm TrustZone® technology, the Apollo510 Lite series integrates robust hardware-based security mechanisms, including secure boot and secure firmware updates. These features ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data across connected systems, making the Apollo510 Lite series an ideal platform for secure, intelligent edge AI deployments in wearables, smart home, and industrial edge applications.
