The IEEE has officially ratified IEEE 802.1ASdm-2024, an important update to the Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standards. This amendment enhances clock synchronization capabilities, improving the reliability and precision of real-time communication...

Despite being 40 years old, 8051 microcontrollers can still serve useful roles in modern systems. But integrating 8051s in today's systems with their de facto standard AMBA® buses, wider datapaths, and shared memories can seem impossible. Yet it can...

CANsec is a resource-efficient solution for securing the CAN bus against the most common cyber security threats on software-defined vehicles. Here we show that the encryption and authentication of CAN XL frames are possible without latencies or loss...

CAST provides quick, effective customer support services to help our IP core customers keep their system development projects moving on time and on budget.

The CAN Bus Controller IP Core provided by CAST successfully passed interoperability testing at the recent CAN XL Plugfest held by the CiA.

HCLTech is a longtime partner and IP cores customer of CAST, a mutually-beneficial relationship that is continuing with this announcement.

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) Ethernet is appealing for aeronautic systems, and potentially may replace current standards like MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC-664. The standard for Aerospace TSN—the 802.1DP profile —is evolving, and our partner Fraunhofer...

Explore CAST's commitment to delivering top-quality IP cores, covering architecture development, best coding practices, rigorous verification, and risk reduction. Learn how CAST's 30 years of experience and dedication to customer support make them a...

CAST and ANySilicon partner to help SoC designers find the best IP cores for their projects.

The CAST team's experience at Embedded World 2023 was quite successful, including winning a Best in Show award for the EMSA5-FS RISC-V Functional Safety Proeceeor IP core.

White paper comparing the compression efficiency of JPEG-LS, JPEG2000, PNG, and QOI lossless compression algorithms.

Discusses the hardware implementations of QOI (Quite Okay Image) lossless compression encoder and decoder IP cores. Provides sample results, and describes a further compression improvement using the Hilbert curve.

At CAST we take safety seriously and are proud to offer one of the broadest arrays of silicon IP cores that are certified for Automotive Functional Safety.

Fraunhofer IPMS takes the CAN XL Controller IP core we offer to the first such CiA plugfest, where it performs successfully against the functional the interoperability tests

Simplify your ISO 26262 Functioonal Safety certification effort by using IAR's certified Embedded Toolkit for RISC-V with the EMSA5-FS processor.

CAST customer care is more than just customer support. Nearly three decades of experience have proven that when we take ownership of our product’s integration into the final product, we are guaranteed customer satisfaction. So we consider ourselves...
