sureCore Opens Low Power Memory Compiler Access
Evaluate PowerMiser™ and EverOn™ Imaging, Artificial Intelligence IoT, Medical and Wearable Application Memories
SHEFFIELD, England, Jan. 21, 2020 -- sureCore Limited is opening its low power memory compiler for 30 days to qualifying companies to evaluate the capabilities of their PowerMiser and EverOn standard SRAM IP products on low power metrics. The new service will prove particularly useful for constraint and compute intensive SoC designs.

The Compiler Access Program (CAP) is the newest service for the company's low-power SRAM IP that are implemented in CMOS and SOI processes for demanding imaging, artificial intelligence, IoT, medical and wearable applications.
CAP is available to SoC designers to evaluate the performance and low power capabilities of sureCore's low power SRAM on 22nm, 28nm or 40nm process technology. Companies can apply for CAP at www.sure-core.com.
"AI, imaging, IoT, medical and wearable devices all require enhanced power profiles. With SRAM integration levels continuing to rise, our standard products help deliver the power savings needed in these competitive market spaces. Through CAP, we're opening a low power memory test drive to optimize power budgets and manufacturability," explained Paul Wells, sureCore's CEO.
Companies qualifying for CAP receive a link and password plus the Compiler User Guide. Designers can then explore optimal performance/lowest power SRAM that meets project requirements.
CAP will generate datasheets that cover detailed PPA information, including access times, dynamic power, and sleep/deep sleep/standby leakage power, based on the requested instances and operating environment.
PowerMiser and EverOn
PowerMiser and EverOn Low-Power SRAM IP are both silicon-proven, process independent, variability tolerant and features market leading dynamic and static power consumption, with EverOn delivering unparalleled low voltage operation.
PowerMiser delivers best-in-class static and dynamic power performance. Its patented "Bit Line Voltage Control" techniques have the added benefit of virtually eliminating performance compromises at low operating voltages. Retentive sleep modes, including light sleep for rapid wake-up as well as deep-sleep for maximal leakage current savings, are offered.
The PowerMiser compilers support capacities up to 576Kbit with word lengths up to 144bits with three multiplexing factors; 4, 8 and 16. The compiler allows designers to make trade-offs between various SRAM sizes in terms of number of words, word length and multiplex factor. It automatically generates datasheets, simulation (Verilog), layout (LEF) and timing/power (Liberty) models to enable standard EDA tool flows.
EverOn operates down to a record-setting 0.6V across process, voltage and temperature delivering an impressive operating voltage range from 0.6V to 1.21V. It provides an unprecedented 20MHz cycle time at 0.6V scaling to over 300MHz at 1.21V, opening new capabilities for cutting edge wearable and Internet of Things applications.
The EverOn Ultra-Low Voltage compiler supports synchronous single port SRAM with operating voltages ranging from 0.6 to 1.21 volts and memory capacities ranging from 8Kbytes to 576Kbytes with maximum word lengths of 72bits.
