ARM introduces a new real-time processor with advanced security features for the world of driverless, medical and industrial robotics. The ARM Cortex-R52 is designed to help the system be functionally safe to meet the most stringent safety standards ISO 26262 ASIL D and IEC 61508 SIL 3 in the automotive and industrial markets.
The Cortex-R52 is tailored to systems with advanced security features, while delivering high-performance and real-time reactive computing. It will meet the needs of diverse applications such as surgical automation, safety management and automotive powertrain control. STMicroelectronics is the first partner to announce the licensing of this high-performance processor and will be used to develop highly integrated system-on-chip (SoC) for the automotive market.
James McNiven, general manager of the ARM processor and multimedia processing division, said: "The Cortex-R52 is the first processor based on the ARMv8-R architecture to achieve functional security. We are helping partners to grasp the market from a specific market. Opportunities, especially systems such as driverless and robotic, require specific features to address high security requirements. By documenting rigorous development processes, fault modeling, and supporting software isolation, ARM helps partners develop these applications. Achieve faster time to market."
How the Cortex-R52 worksThe Cortex-R52 supports hardware-enforced software separation to ensure that absolutely secure code is completely isolated. This allows the hardware to be managed by the software hypervisor, supervising the execution of tasks and resource allocation. Through precise and complete software separation, the Cortex-R52 speeds up the development process by reducing the amount of code that must be certified for safety, simplifying software integration, maintenance and verification. The processor can also handle the growing software complexity while enabling the determinism and fast environmental switching required for real-time systems.
Fabio Marchi, vice president of automotive and discrete components division of STMicroelectronics and general manager of automotive digital division, said: "The Cortex-R52 can support our vision of 'smart driving'. The Cortex-R52 will lead to a new range of high performance, low power consumption. The SoC can be applied to any in-vehicle application that requires real-time operation and the highest level of functional safety, including powertrain, chassis and ADAS. The Cortex-R52 has the ability to separate software without sacrificing certainty conditions for our users. The best security solution is available. In addition, the Cortex-R52's virtualization support makes it easier to consolidate different applications and functions into a single processor and reduce integration time."
Japan Denso (DENSO), the world's leading supplier of advanced automotive technology, systems and components, also expressed support for the launch of the Cortex-R52.
Hideki Sugimoto, general manager of ePF's advanced R&D department at Japan Denso, said: "Japan Denso is very pleased to see the development of new processor technology to promote the evolution of embedded real-time control, which is essential for advancing unmanned systems. I am looking forward to the first Cortex-R52 based product."
The ARM Rapid Model and Cycle Model help software partners develop solutions for this processor. Access to the Cortex-R52 early in the design process will also help software developers further shorten the time to market. The Cortex-R52 offers a 35% performance improvement over the Cortex-R5, which has been deployed in a range of security applications. With Green Hills Compiler 2017, the Cortex-R52 achieved the highest score in the same category of 1.36 Automark?/MHz on EEMBC AutoBench.
Dan Mender, vice president of business development at Green Hills Software, said: "By optimizing our compiler solutions for the Cortex-R52, Green Hills Software is expanding its support for ARM processors. By working closely with ARM, Green Hills is Cortex- The R52 provides the industry's highest performance and safety-certified compilers to help customers develop safety-critical products while meeting the most stringent automotive (ASIL D) and industrial (SIL 3) safety certifications."
