-
Applications for Ambiq include AI, gaming, wearables, hearables, smartcards, intelligent remotes, smart home/buildings, and industrial edge sensors, smart glasses, and more.
-
It’s the idea of devices staying ready for intelligent features whether they are connected by the internet or not. It is the idea that features like always-listening voice commands, continuously monitoring health, and other intelligent features can run uninterrupted and provide multi-day, month, or year-long battery life.
-
Because many edge devices need to run continuously on limited power budgets; Ambiq emphasizes dramatically reducing energy consumption so advanced sensing and edge AI workloads can run efficiently on batteries.
-
Ambiq’s Apollo and Artasie products cover a wide range of manufacturer needs for power, efficiency, and features. Whether you need to build a smart home device, an industrial sensor for predictive maintenance, or a health sensor, we can help you find the right product.

SPOT® (Subthreshold Power Optimized Technology) is Ambiq’s proprietary and patented platform focused on ultra-low power operation. SPOT is how Ambiq differentiates itself from other semiconductor companies. Rather than operating above voltage levels above 1V, Ambiq has defied physics with SPOT to operate below 1 Volt or at subthreshold levels, providing a quadratic saving in energy-efficiency the lower the volt goes. In turn, developers can add larger and more complex AI models without compromising performance and battery life. Other optimized technology include blueSPOT®, turboSPOT®, graphiqSPOT™, secureSPOT®, and neuralSPOT®.
