Cortex-M0+ is not the newest small, low-power processor and, in fact, some newer offerings may surpass it. However, its broad deployment and mature environment continue to make the processor a compelling offering for low-power applications.
So, what’s important to know about Cortex-M0+? The Cortex-M processor series as a whole is supposed to fill a market need for devices with limited power consumption and are low cost, and thus are suitable for a broad range of applications. The Cortex-M0+ processor takes the family further by offering the smallest footprint and lowest power requirements. This extra step makes Cortext-M0+ a good fit for wearables and sensors.
