The two companies will jointly present a complete set of RISC-V at the upcoming RISC-V Conference (RISC-V Workshop, to be held at the Technical University of Technology, Catalonia, Spain, May 7-10) Develop, debug and track design processes.
UltraSoC currently exclusively offers a commercial RISC-V development environment, including system-on-chip (SoC) analysis, processor traces, and other options that can be used to meet end-user needs. As an industry pioneer, UltraSoC developed RISC in 2017. -V processor tracking technology, and soon followed its tracking specification to the RISC-V Foundation for use as part of the Foundation's standardization efforts. The company remains fully committed to supporting RISC-V Foundation standards Operation-control/debug, and proposes a processor trace format that provides integrated debug and development solutions for any processor architecture including ARM, Cadence/Tensilica, CEVA, and MIPS as proposed in the company's comprehensive development strategy. Consistent.
Jingxin Technology's cores are based on high-performance AndeStarTM V5 32-bit and 64-bit architecture. The partnership with UltraSoC will enable customers to select and integrate advanced embedded analysis when using Andes V5 N25 and NX25 processors. Features. Customers using Crystal Core's high-performance 32-bit and 64-bit processor cores can use the SoC analysis and debug IP of UltraSoC in addition to the RISC-V processor trace function. These functions are combined to give SoC designers bring full visibility, not only to observe the performance of the kernel, but also to observe the operation of the entire system.
Jingxin Technology has adopted RISC-V as its AndeStar V5, its fifth generation processor architecture, and released two high-end processors in its AndesCoreTM series of configurable processor IP series: 32-bit N25 and 64-bit NX25. Both products are based on RISC-V, and their actual performance exceeds 3.4 CoreMark/MHz, while the number of logic gates is as low as 30K (N25) and 50K (NX25), respectively, in the 28nm HPC process using TSMC (TSMC) The maximum clock frequency is 1.1GHz. N25 and NX25 are ideal for high-speed control tasks. After selecting any one of these cores, users can benefit from the available UltraSoC embedded intelligence.
Shin Sui-mo, chief technology officer and senior vice president of R&D at Grace Technology, said: 'Because of its exceptional performance/power ratio, flexible configuration and comprehensive support tools, the N25 and NX25 AndesCore processors are used by our customers. Widely used. Selecting UltraSoC as a priority partner in the field of embedded analysis, tracking and verification will provide our customers with an advanced development environment that includes the internal operation and processing of the SoC without disturbing the target's behavior. In-depth observation of the implementation of the device. UltraSoC has already demonstrated its commitment to the development of the RISC-V ecosystem. Therefore it is clearly the best partner for our V5 RISC-V architecture. We are pleased to work together to serve a number of mutual customers. They use Crystal's Andes N25/NX25 processor and UltraSoC's IP and tracking solutions to meet their demanding applications.
Rupert Baines, CEO of UltraSoC, stated: “We are very pleased that we can work together with Gexin Technology to develop its innovative RISC-V processor core and work together to help both of our mutual customers leverage the advantages of its leading V5 AndeStar architecture and enable customers. Utilize UltraSoC's SoC analysis and debug IP and processor traceability to fully understand the system to implement the design.
RISC-V is an open instruction set architecture that was rapidly adopted after its initial development at the University of California, Berkeley. UltraSoC and Gexin Technology are active members of the RISC-V Foundation, and at RISC-V The development has played an active role. Both companies have participated in all the RISC-V conferences and will also participate in the 8th RISC-V conference held in Barcelona.
UltraSoC is committed to providing an optimal tool to help designers of complex systems perform high-value, in-depth observations of hardware and software performance at the same time. This observation tracking can cover the entire electronic system, especially important is the observation and analysis function. Can play a role in the actual operation of the product, not just in the design phase; the resulting benefit is that it can significantly improve its security, protection capabilities, performance and power consumption. Designers can monitor and understand hardware and software collaboration Work-time conditions and fine-tuning of the system even after the chip has been implanted in an overall system design. UltraSoC's embedded analysis technology can reduce development costs by 25% and avoid redesign and shorten time to market In terms of other aspects to achieve significant cost savings and create a competitive advantage.
