MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA, 29th November 2016
BaySand, Codasip, Codeplay and UltraSoC today announced an integrated IoT development platform based on the RISC-V open processor instruction set architecture (ISA). The platform offers an open-standards-based solution that allows designers of systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) for IoT applications to get from concept to silicon with a high level of software integration in record time and substantially de-risks the entire product development process.
This new collaboration will be formally announced at the 5th RISC-V Workshop (Google Quad Campus, Mountain View, CA, 29th November), and combines the following partnership:
Premstaetten, Austria (29 November, 2016) — ams AG (SIX: AMS), a leading provider of high performance sensors and analog ICs, today announced the AS7221, the industry’s first integrated white-tunable smart lighting manager. Lighting manufacturers designing with the AS7221 can now quickly integrate high-precision CCT, or “Kelvin-tuning”, capabilities into their Internet of Things (IoT) smart lighting offerings. The versatile architecture, which includes an I2C extension interface, positions the AS7221 to deliver Internet of Awareness™ IoT sensor hub platform capabilities for sensing functions such as air quality, temperature, occupancy, and presence.

MILPITAS, CA – November 28, 2016 – Linear Technology Corporation introduces the LTM4636, a 40A step-down µModule® switching regulator with 3D construction for quicker heat dissipation and cooler operation in a small package. By stacking its inductor on top of a 16mm x 16mm BGA package, the LTM4636 benefits from the exposed inductor as a heat sink, permitting direct contact with airflow from any direction to cool the device. The LTM4636 delivers 40W (12VIN, 1VOUT, 40A, 200LFM) with only 40°C rise over ambient temperature. Full-power 40W is delivered up to 83°C ambient and half-power 20W is supported at 110°C ambient.
Shelton, Conn. – November, 28, 2016. Until now, design engineers working with low-resource variants of RISC-V processors have been unable to implement asymmetric (public-key) cryptography to secure these devices due to size and performance limitations. SecureRF today announced commercial availability of its WalnutDSATM digital signature algorithm and IronwoodTM key agreement protocol for processors based on the RISC-V instruction set, making it possible to secure even the smallest RISC-V-based devices.
“ECC and RSA provide suitable security against current attacks in resource-rich environments. But when you need to provide security on constrained devices using the 32-bit … Read More → "SecureRF to Launch IoT Security Solution for Low-Resource RISC-V Devices at 5th RISC-V Workshop"
