Luminary Micro has closed 2006 with four industry media awards for its Stellaris family of microcontrollers - the world's first silicon implementation of the ARM Cortex-M3 processor core The awards are: Electronic Design, Technology of the Year; EDN, Hot 100 Products; EETimes/eeProductCenter, Q1 2006 Ultimate Product and finalist for 2006 Ultimate Product of the Year; and Embedded Computing Design, Editors' Choice Award

Chief Marketing Officer Jean Anne Booth summed up the company's early success.

"Embedded systems developers simply prefer the ARM architecture", said Booth.

"ARM processors are currently shipping at a rate of greater than 2.5 billion processors per year, and the ARM ecosystem of silicon, tools, software, hardware, systems, and support is the largest in the world".

"The Stellaris family of MCUs provides the architectural compatibility that designers want, coupled with the price and performance that embedded applications need".

"We knew from the beginning that Stellaris would bring more bang for the buck to embedded applications, and we're honoured that industry media and our peers have recognised us with the first of what we hope to be many awards".
