Rupert Baines, CEO of UltraSoC
UltraSoC simplifies SoC development with embedded analytics IP, provides embedded analytics capabilities that speed up new chip design development by lowering barriers such as chip design cost, process, and integration, and is compatible with all infrastructures, delivering high performance for different orders of magnitude IC companies, maker and so provide the ability to control the customized chips, and its competitors are directed at the industry overlord Arm.
Support for open source RISC-V architecture, changing SoC design challenges
As an IP vendor, UltraSoC, founded in 2011, is not a veteran but has a large customer base Rupert Baines says our IP is to help customers solve the toughest problems and find out what's going on in chip designs problem.
Currently, customers that have already integrated UltraSoC's IP products include HiSilicon (Huawei), Inter, Microsemi, Imagination, Movidius, PMC-Sierra, etc., and have successfully streamed chips at 40nm, 28nm, 16nm and 7nm process nodes.
The rapid prototyping of UltraSoC's customer base is inextricably linked with its open-source philosophy. "The philosophy behind the open source move is that instead of engineers having to design every part of the sketches, UltraSoC delivers its IP with DesignShare that will radically change the challenges of chip design '
In September, UltraSoC announced that it will provide debug and trace technology for the SiFive Freedom platform based on the RISC-V open-source processor architecture specification, which UltraSoC has already developed and is using by processor vendors. The UltraSoC's debug and trace features will be supported Users of the Freedom platform extensively interface with the tools and interfaces used in their designs while enhancing the open source RISC-V architecture ecosystem.
On November 14, Rupert Baines announced that Microsemi Corporation has purchased Microsemi products for the RISC-V open-source processor architecture licensed for the UltraSoC Universal Analysis and Embedded Intelligence Platform Furthering the two companies' engagement in the RISC-V ecosystem, UltraSoC is currently partnering with six major RISC-V processor vendors, following the company's early promises to support the fast-growing open-source ecosystem The UltraSoC also announced in June this year that it has introduced the industry's first processor tracking solution for RISC-V.
Optimize Performance Reduce Costs and Accelerate Support for Localized Chip Development
UltraSoC's embedded semiconductor IP products enable designers of complex and high performance devices to create an on-chip architecture that can monitor the hardware and software behavior of a chip in a non-intrusive manner, allowing engineers to take advantage of the IP to get the ultimate understanding of the interworking between on-chip processor units, custom logic and system software.
According to Rupert Baines, the benefits of using embedded UltraSoC embedded IP analysis are substantial. For example, when designing a chip, the speed of CPU is not planned so fast. Ultra SOC's IP technology can solve this problem. In addition, CPU Caching, Ultra SOC At the software level, optimizing the cache improves CPU performance by up to 20% and provides SoC designers with valuable embedded analytics.Otherwise, according to SemiCo Research, Using UltraSoC's IP technology in the development process can double the profitability of many projects while reducing development costs by a quarter.
In addition to its leading customers in North America and Europe, a number of leading Chinese chip design houses have chosen UltraSoC for their related projects, such as Huawei Haas, Inc. These advanced chips are expected to be used in a variety of applications including Generation networks, 5G mobile communications, high performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), etc. UltraSoC's technologies are aggressively serving these partners with ARM, RISC-V, MIPS and other architectures.
'The China market is very important for UltraSoC, including many big customers in China, and China has a lot of market incentives in the global semiconductor industry, including startups developing new SoC applications.' 'Rupert Baines said many Chinese customers are using our IP UltraSoC will enable more chip makers to be localized based on this technology, and UltraSoC will be showcased at the 2017 China IC Design Summit and the ICCAD 2017 in Beijing With its on-chip monitoring and analysis IP, Rupert Baines will lead the team at the event and will be presenting a forum entitled "System-Level Complexity Challenges" at Forum 3, November 17: , Security and security architecture needs' presentation.
