Codasip wins RISC-V order from motor control IC manufacturer
Dongwoon Anatech, a fabless analog semiconductor specialist, offers a wide range of analog products, including auto-focus driver IC for smartphones, AMOLED DC-DC converter, display power driver IC, and haptic driver IC.
The Bk3 processor features a single 3-stage in-order execution processor pipeline, and offers optional caches, IEEE 1149.1 debug, and industry-standard bus interfaces.
“Analysis of the computational needs of our application showed that the RISC-V instruction set with custom DSP extensions was able to deliver the performance we require while keeping silicon area to a minimum,” said Jin Park, CTO of Dongwoon Anatech, in a statement issued by Codasip. “The best-in-class Studio development tools enable us to profile our software and find an optimal set of instructions for our application.”
