The World’s Most Powerful Real-Time Processor.
Massive performance and true Freedom From Interference enable fast robust secure development whilst enabling increased integration and lowering total system costs.
The Challenge
Previously we had to choose a tradeoff:
* Fast time-to-market
* Low cost through high levels of integration
* Reliable and safe software
Once completed systems are brittle, changes are hard, and testing regimes become slow and expensive.
Traditional real-time systems were bogged down by AUTOSAR overhead, complex safety cases, and unpredictable interference between software tasks.
By massively increasing the available computational power, whilst simplifying and isolating the system, Apitronix' architecture makes it easy to combine and mix more functionality on each device, whilst speeding development and leaving an end product that can be changed without a painful testing and validation burden.
The Apitronix Solution: We move the protection and scheduling into the hardware. Our architecture provides True Freedom-from-Interference (FFI), meaning "rogue code" on one core cannot affect another.
Performance and FFI
-
Massively Parallel Real-Time: 220 RISC-V cores designed for constant/bounded instruction times.
-
Hardware-Level Composability: Run software from multiple vendors (e.g., an OEM’s control logic and a Tier-1’s sensing algorithm) on the same chip without cross-talk.
-
Real-Time ML Inference: True deterministic AI performance that matches industry leaders like Nvidia Orin AGX for specific applications at a fraction of the cost or power consumption.
-
Zero-Overhead Standards: Native support for AUTOSAR peripherals without the software stack overhead.
-
Simplified learning curve, simplified safety cases
