K-Micro's (Kawasaki Microelectronics') ASIC technologies and design support target the consumer-electronics, computer, office-automation, networking, and storage markets. K-Micro's computing subsystem includes a MIPS32 24Kf processor, the Sonics SiliconBackplane and Sonics3220 Smart interconnects, the SafeNet SafeXcel security engine, an off-chip OCP (Open Core Protocol) interface, on-chip SRAM, a flash-memory controller, a DMA interface, an interrupt controller, and a timer. To create an SoC (system on chip), designers add their proprietary logic to the computing subsystem. Single- and dual-core processors are available.
