ProductsARC® Configurable CPU/DSP CoresComplete Spectrum of Cores: from the Industry's Smallest and Lowest Power, to 1000 DMIPS of Performance at Half the Size of Competing Cores.ARC International pioneered configurable processor technology and is the market leader with over 150+ customers worldwide who collectively ship more than 300 million ARC-Based™ chips annually. ARC's customers differentiate their products by tailoring the ARC core IP to the target system's requirements using ARC's patented configuration technology. ARC's configurable CPU/DSP cores enable SoC designers to build highly competitive products by easily customizing the processor to a target application. ARC's CPU/DSP cores can be optimized to achieve the highest performance, smallest size, and lowest power consumption of any 32-bit processors in their class. All ARC processors utilize a 16-/32-bit ISA that provides both RISC and full DSP capabilities in a unified architecture. Cores may be used as-is, or quickly and easily customized to meet any application requirement: from ultra-small task-specific controllers, to programmable and robust application processor subsystems. All of ARC's processors are synthesizable, can be easily implemented in standard foundry processes, and are supported by a wide range of development tools.

Configurable Cores Product Range
Core SelectorARC International offers a broad range of configurable processor cores that meet the complex and varied processing requirements of today's system-on-chips (SoCs). ARC's patented configurable technology allows designers to select only the silicon features they require for their specific application. The resulting SoC is finely tuned in terms of speed, area and power — and hence functionality and cost. Other unique features offer SoC designers the opportunity to achieve major improvements in efficiency and power consumption. ARC’s Energy PRO technology enables sophisticated system-wide power management features such as architectural clock gating and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS). And ARC® cores can be configured with custom instructions that accelerate critical code, reduce required clock frequency and cut power consumption.
ARC® 600 Core FamilySmall, Low-Power Configurable 32-bit CPU/DSP CoresARC 600 family cores are ultra small, low-cost solutions for hard real-time and embedded applications, and for cost sensitive consumer devices. ARC® 700 Core FamilyPower Efficient, High Performance Configurable 32-bit CPU/DSP CoresARC 700 family cores meet the needs of the most demanding SoC tasks. They employ a high performance 7-stage CPU that delivers over 1000 DMIPS performance in 90nm process implementations. |
