EnSilica, the ASIC specialist, and Codasip, a provider of functionally-safe and cyber-resilient RISC-V CPUs, will enable custom ASICs incorporating CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions), Post-Quantum Cryptographic (PQC) acceleration, and advanced system-level security and safety features. EnSilica will use Codasip’s portfolio of 32-bit and 64-bit CHERI RISC-V processors as the foundation for developing customer-specific System-on-Chip (SoC) integrated circuits. By building on Codasip’s advanced CHERI RISC-V processors, we can offer customers complete, application-specific ASIC solutions with security and functional safety designed in from the ground up. We are excited to work with Codasip to bring this next generation of trusted silicon to market.”Dr Ron Black, CEO of Codasip added: “The partnership will help to unlock the full potential or our leading-edge 32-bit and 64-bit CHERI RISC-V CPUs. Developed in line with ISO 26262 functional safety and ISO 21434 cybersecurity standards, our processors come with a complete ecosystem including CHERI toolchain, CHERI Linux, and CHERI RTOSes.
