Cette publication existe aussi en Français
HighTec EDV-Systeme has added support for Nuclei System Technology’s RISC-V CPU IP to its automotive-grade LLVM open-source-based C/C++ compiler.
The tools are safety-qualified according to ISO 26262 up to ASIL D for Nuclei’s functional safety-certified RISC-V cores.
Nuclei has received two Exida ASIL-D product certifications for its NA300 and NA900 RISC-V cores in the last two years, which confirm the high security and reliability of Nuclei’s automotive-grade products.

Starting from scratch, Nuclei has developed four general product lines (N/U and NX/UX), and three vertical product lines (NS, NA and NI) with over 250 customers. The N/U (SV32) are 32bit processors aiming for edge computing, low power and IoT application while the NX/UX (SV39 and SV48) are 64bit processors aiming for high-end applications like data centre, networking and storage.
The NS (Security) is designed for security application like payment and finance; the NA (Automotive) is specifically designed for automotive electronics functional safety application; NI (Intelligence) is designed for high performance computing applications like AI.
The HighTec C/C++ automotive compiler is designed to meet all the technical requirements to take full advantage of the performance and safety features of Nuclei’s RISC-V cores. The compiler is based on the modern LLVM (Low Level Virtual Machine) open-source technology and is known across the industry for its fast build times and its advanced code optimizations. HighTec’s functional safety certified C/C++ compiler comes with a qualification toolkit, which speeds up the development and certification of functional safety automotive applications.

“Nuclei System Technology’s RISC-V CPU IP adheres to the highest industry quality control standards. To enhance the user experience and optimize debugging solutions in our customers’ SoC designs, we need high-quality automotive compiler tools like from HighTec to support our downstream customers in their development work. The availability of the HighTec compiler will provide our automotive customers with more reliable solutions,” said Jianying Peng, CEO of Nuclei System Technology.
“We are excited to enter Nuclei’s ecosystem as a trusted partner, and HighTec is fully committed to support future developments of Nuclei’s RISC-V IP as well,” said Mario Cupelli, CTO at HighTec. “Automotive customers can focus on their fast development and market launch of robust, safety-critical RISC-V automotive applications and thereby rely on HighTec’s automotive-grade C/C++ compiler solution.”
