High-performance 64-bit ARC processor IP boosts performance by 3X
Synopsys announced the new DesignWare ARC HS5x and HS6x processor IP families for high-performance embedded applications. The 32-bit ARC HS5x and 64-bit HS6x processors, available in single-core and multicore versions, are implementations of a new superscalar ARCv3 Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) and deliver up to 8750 DMIPS per core in 16-nm process technologies under typical conditions, making them […]
Trace visualization tool now supports On Time RTOS-32
Percepio announces that Tracealyzer 4 support for On-Time RTOS-32, in addition to the already supported Amazon FreeRTOS, Keil RTX5, Micrium µC/OS-III and SafeRTOS/OpenRTOS. “Tracealyzer 4 is a massive improvement over previous versions. We have collaborated with On Time for more than five years and we are excited to now bring the next generation in RTOS […]
High-speed I/O processors sport 64-bit time-predictable and energy efficient cores
Kalray announced that it will launch the third-generation of its high-performance MPPA processor: the MPPA3 Coolidge. With the success of its second-generation MPPA2-256 Bostan processor, selected by numerous automotive and aeronautic OEMs and Tier1’s, Kalray has taken its unique manycore technology to the next level in terms of performance. The third-generation of the MPPA will be […]
The Internal Processor Bus: data, address, and control bus
A bus is a pathway for digital signals to rapidly move data. There are three internal buses associated with processors: the data bus, address bus, and control bus. Together, these three make up the “system bus.” The system bus is an internal bus, intended to connect the processor with internal hardware devices, and is also […]
64-bit MCUs in 4 mm x 4 mm packages offer 256 KB Flash
