RoS-ES RTOS for Diamond Standard and Xtensa Customizable DPUs
Tata Elxsi’s RoS-ES (Real Time Operating System for Embedded Systems) operating system is now available for Tensilica’s Xtensa customizable dataplane processors (DPUs) and Diamond Standard processors. Tensilica’s processor cores are efficient and, when paired with our RoS-ES RTOS, they become effective SOC controllers. Tata Elxsi’s RoS-ES is a compact real-time operating system (RTOS) that provides [...]
ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore Hard Macro Implementations
ARM developed two Cortex-A9 MPCore hard macro implementations for the TSMC 40nm-G process. The hard macro implementations enable silicon manufacturers to have a rapid and low-risk route to silicon for high-performance, low-power Cortex-A9 processor-based devices. The speed-optimized hard macro implementation will enable devices to operate at frequencies greater than 2GHz. The Cortex-A9 hard macros and [...]
ARM .18um Ultra Low Power Libraries
The ARM 0.18µm ultra low power libraries (uLL), coupled with the inherent power management advantages of the ARM Cortex processor family and the TSMC 0.18µm embedded flash uLL/HDR high data retention process provides SoC designers with additional reduction in power leakage up to 10x compared to 0.18um G implementations. ARM 0.18µm ultra low-power physical IP [...]
Tensilica ConnX DSP Family of Communications IP Cores
The ConnX DSP, from Tensilica, is a family of high-performance communications DSP (digital signal processors) IP (intellectual property) cores. The ConnX DSPs feature standard cores, click-box configurable options or a starting point for customized Xtensa® LX DPUs (dataplane processor units) for SOC (system-on-chip) designs. The new pre-designed communications DSP cores enables designers to achieve faster [...]
Fast Fourier Transform and FIR Filter Compiler DSP IP Cores
eASIC introduced two new DSP IP cores, an FFT and FIR Filter Compiler. The FT core supports point sizes from 16 to 16K points and data rates up to 100 MSPS with a compact footprint. The FIR Compiler core (available from Steepest Ascent) can process data streams as high as 500 MSPS and is ideal [...]
RTXC Quadros Real-time Operating Systems Support ARM1136, ARM1176 Cores
Quadros Systems announced that their RTXC Quadros Real-time Operating Systems (RTOS) now support ARM1136 and ARM1176 cores from ARM. The RTXC Quadros RTOS offers a small footprint and excellent efficiency while ARM11 processors deliver high performance and low energy consumption. The combination of RTXC Quadros RTOS and ARM11 processors is ideal for consumer electronics, GPS [...]
ARM Cortex-M0 Processor
ARM introduced their Cortex-M0 processor. The Cortex-M0 is the smallest, lowest power, and most energy-efficient ARM processor available. The low power, small gate count, and code footprint of the processor enables MCU developers to achieve 32-bit performance at an 8-bit price point. The ultra low gate count makes it ideal for analog and mixed signal [...]
