Synopsys ARC Sensor and Control IP Subsystem

Sensors are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. Many applications, such as those in the Internet of Things (IoT), automotive, and mobile markets increasingly rely on the ability to interpret a combination of environmental conditions such as pressure, temperature, motion, and proximity. By pre-integrating sensor and actuator-specific IP blocks together with software in a single subsystem, Synopsys gives designers a complete, SoC-ready sensor and control solution that can significantly reduce their design and integration effort, lower design risk and accelerate time-to-market.

The Synopsys ARC® Sensor and Control IP Subsystem is optimized to process data from digital and analog sensors, offloading the host processor and enabling more power efficient processing of sensor data. Faster application-specific control loops are driven via precision peripherals, and DSP single-cycle math computations and fractional arithmetic support. The fully configurable subsystem includes the choice of an ARC EM4 or EM6 processor, optional IEEE 754-2008 compliant FPU, integrated control peripherals, data converter interfaces, hardware accelerators, an extensive library of software DSP functions and I/O software drivers. The ARC Sensor and Control IP Subsystem provides designers with a complete, pre-verified solution that optimizes sensor fusion and actuator/motor control functions increasingly prevalent in automotive, mobile, industrial and IoT markets.
