Embedded World 2018
Cortus was present at Embedded World 2018, represented by Chris Kopetzky (VP Engineering) and Babacar Gassama (R&D Engineer).
Cortus presenting at SEDEX 2017 in Seoul Korea, on the 17th October 2017
Montpellier, France. Cortus will be exhibiting at the SEDEX Semiconductor Exhibition, Hall C Stand A081, in Seoul Korea from the 17th of October 2017 to the 19th of October 2017.
Cortus will present their offer “From idea to Silicon” at 10:30 am on the 18th of October in the Conference Room (South) 318, COEX. Cortus will show how customers can benefit from complete support from their initial idea to silicon and firmware with an emphasis of having a successful product on time. Embedded firmware and its verification are essential parts of that process. You are of course welcome any time during the exhibition to visit Cortus’ stand to discuss how we can contribute to your success.
Michael Chapman (President & CEO), Duc Nguyen Huu (General Manager) will be present with Jung Hoon Lee – Cortus Branch Manager of the Korea office.
“This is an excellent opportunity to meet with our customers and talk with new clients.”, says Michael Chapman President & CEO of Cortus. “We are proud to be able to share with existing customers and future clients how we can accompany them from their initial idea to successful product.”
The Cortus IP portfolio includes the APS family of processors starting with the ultra low power and the world’s smallest 32 bit core, the APS3R, and offers rowing complexity such as the highperformance image processing SoC up to the floating point FPS26 solution, including cores that implement the RISC-V ISA. Other IP also includes caches, busses, bridges, USB, Ethernet, security, safety. In addition Cortus has numerous analog IP available including RF blocks. These IPs can be complemented with customer supplied IPs or with IPs from other sources. Of course Cortus’ existing IPs can be adapted to meet the specific equirements of the customer.
The APS toolchain and IDE (for C and C++) are available to licensees. This can be customised and branded for final customer use. Ports of various RTOSs are available such as FreeRTOS, Micrium uC/OSII® & Micrium uC/OSIII® and TargetOS. Other RTOSs can be readily ported if required. About Cortus S.A.S.:

Cortus will discuss IoT challenges and solutions for the ASIC designer
Mauguio, France. 5th June 2017 – Cortus, a technology leader in low power, silicon efficient, 32 bit processor IP, and Founding Platinum member of the RISC-V foundation, announces they will be presenting “Challenges in ASIC Design for IoT” at the IoT seminar. They will complement this with a seminar later in the week covering a number of these aspects in greater detail.
Drawing on their experience with customers in the IoT area they will share the typical challenges that are faced when implementing IoT solutions. From the obvious low power requirements to the less obvious impact of code density but also including the various, sometimes contradictory, aspects of security.
“This gives us a great opportunity to share our experience with the challenges that our customers face when developing IoT solutions.”, says Michael Chapman President & CEO of Cortus. “Sebastien Ternat and David Kerr-Munslow both have wide experience helping our customers and I am delighted that they will be able to share with this wider audience”.
IoT has become a key market. Many companies are creating ASIC and single chip solutions for their IoT projects and are faced with a combination of challenges that are not generally found together in other designs. Many of Cortus’ processor cores answer these challenges and are used in deployed IoT products.
The Cortus family of APS processors starts with the world’s smallest 32 bit core, the APS1, and offers growing complexity up to the floating point FPS26 solution, including some cores that implement the RISC-V ISA. All cores interface to Cortus’ extensive IP portfolio, including caches, busses, bridges, peripherals such as Ethernet 10/100 MAC or USB. Most also share the simple vectored interrupt structure which ensures rapid, real time interrupt response, with low software overhead.
The APS toolchain and IDE (for C and C++) is available to licensees free of charge, and which can be customised and branded for final customer use. Ports of various RTOSs are available such as FreeRTOS, Micrium uC/OSII® & Micrium uC/OSIII® and TargetOS.
To date over 1.9 billion devices have been manufactured containing Cortus processor cores, many of them in security conscious, power constrained systems.
