The APS3R 32 bit processor IP core is aimed at embedded system on chip (SoC) applications. The APS3R combines silicon efficiency with good computational performance yielding outstanding dynamic and static power consumption.

The APS3R CPU starts at about 7.8 kgates meaning that its silicon footprint is comparable to 8-bit cores such as the 8051. However, the APS3R brings the benefit of much more straightforward SW development using C or C++. Code density is better than with 8-bit or 16-bit cores meaning that the code memory requires a smaller silicon area. With both a small silicon area and good computational performance, the core consumes very little dynamic or static power.

The core is supported with peripherals, bridges, software development tools and real time operating systems.

The APS3R is the smart choice for embedded security and wireless applications.

Cortus SAS is a French semiconductor and IP embedded systems design company headquartered in Mauguio (near Montpellier), France.

Cortus focuses on providing full advanced processing embedded systems solutions including a wide range of different processor IPs.

Cortus is a Founding Platinum member of the RISC-V Foundation.

Cortus has released three families of processors, 32 bit processors with mixed 16/32 bit long instructions, a family with 16/24/32 bit instructions featuring coherent caches, co-processors and other features for complex multi-core systems, as well as a range of RISC-V ISA processors.

A specific feature of the processors from Cortus is their low silicon footprint and low power consumption. Cortus’ proprietary ISA exhibits exceptional code density significantly reducing the silicon cost of on chip non-volatile memories for embedded solutions.

The difference which sets Cortus apart from other processor IP vendors is that we create complete solutions including customized multi-layer interconnect, peripherals, co-processors as well as RTOS ports, device drivers, protocol stacks and debugging solutions for our customers applications.

So far over 52 companies have licensed Cortus cores and over 1.9 billion devices have been manufactured containing Cortus processor cores.
