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 be done. Here we take a look at the challenges, and how to overcome them.

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 of bandwidth.

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.
