IPextreme Brings New ColdFire V1 Platform to Market
Configurable Platform Provides Flexible Subsystem for Deeply Embedded Applications
Campbell, Calif. – October 16, 2013 – IPextreme, a leader in the field of semiconductor IP commercialization, announced today the availability of the new ColdFire® V1 Platform based on technology used in Freescale® Semiconductor’s ColdFire®+ family of products. The new platform rounds out an already rich offering of ColdFire cores and subsystems to provide customers with a solid roadmap of ColdFire-compatible offerings well suited for deeply embedded applications.
The ColdFire V1 Platform consists of an enhanced V1 CPU core and a pre-integrated subsystem consisting of commonly used peripherals that can be configured in or out of the platform. The configuration is handled automatically from within Xena™, IPextreme’s web-based IP delivery system. The list of configurable options includes:
CPU Configuration Options:
- Single-wire debug interface
- Enhanced multiply-accumulate function for DSP operations
- Cryptographic acceleration engine
- Hardware divide unit
Subsystem Configuration Options:
- RAM controller
- ROM controller
- Four channel DMA controller
- GPIO controller
- Flexible memory interface controller
- Timer units (0-4 instances)
- UART units (0-3 instances)
- Queued SPI unit
- Watchdog Timer
- I2C unit
“The semiconductor industry is moving rapidly toward platform-based design as the norm, allowing not only hardware reuse, but also to allow software reuse across multiple product lines,” said Warren Savage, President and CEO of IPextreme. “We have hundreds of ColdFire V1 licenses in the field, and our customers are increasingly asking us to provide them with a simple, easy-to-use platform to get their embedded products to market faster than ever.”
“IPextreme offers a solid roadmap of products that enables new applications leveraging the strength of the ColdFire architecture and ecosystem,” said Geoff Lees, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the microcontrollers business at Freescale. “Availability of IPextreme’s new platform based on Freescale’s ColdFire technology is good news for ColdFire customers and the larger embedded community.”
