The PIC64-GX MPU family stands out with several key features designed to enhance performance and security: • Advanced processing capabilities – PIC64-GX MPUs feature a 64-bit RISC-V quad-core processor with Asymmetric Multi-Processing (AMP), capable of running Linux, a real-time OS and bare metal in a single processor cluster. This makes it ideal for mid-range intelligent edge computing needs. • High security and reliability including Athena F5200 TeraFire Crypto Processor; Cryptography Research Incorporated (CRI)-patented differential power analysis (DPA) protection; integrated dual Physically Unclonable Function (PUF), 56kiB of secure, non-volatile memory; built-in tamper detectors; and digest integrity check for sNVM and eNVM. • Wide range of applications 42 Silicon Chip – these MPUs are designed to serve industrial, automotive, communications, IoT, aerospace and defence segments, making them versatile for high-demand applications. • Support for multiple operating systems – the PIC64-GX family supports a wide range of operating systems, build systems and drivers/middleware, and is backed by both opensource and commercial tools. Our launch also includes the PIC64-HPSC (High-­Performance Spaceflight Computing) family, aimed at aerospace and defence applications. These space-grade, 64-bit multi-core RISC-V MPUs are designed to deliver over 100 times the computing performance of previous models while maintaining high levels of radiation and fault tolerance. For more information, visit siliconchip.au/link/ac57 and see the PIC64GX1000 data sheet at siliconchip.au/link/ac58 The configurable logic block (CLB) is a reconfigurable digital logic module, similar to a CPLD, that is integrated into the microcontroller (MCU) and performs hardware-based digital logic independent of the CPU. This results in fast and predictable response times for a diverse range of applications, including automotive and industrial. The CLB enables much larger hardware-based digital logic designs than previously possible on an MCU and is also capable of operating in sleep mode, allowing complex processing to occur with very low power consumption. The CLB can have up to 32 basic logic elements, including: • AND/OR/NAND/NOR gates • Buffer/inverting buffer • D flip-flop • JK flip-flop • Multiplexers • 4-input LUT Additional features include: • Dynamic configuration for on-the-fly logic changes • Tri-state logic • Input and output from software, I/O pins, and other PIC peripherals, such as an ADC, PWM, DAC and more • Less than 6ns Basic Logic Element (BLE) propagation delay at 5.5V (typical) • 20μA draw per BLE at 1.8V/1MHz (typical) For additional details, visit siliconchip.au/link/ac59 Nagarro www.nagarro.com stand B11 Nagarro is a full-service global digital engineering and consulting leader.
