Information

The 64-bit NX27V is a vector processor with 5-stage scalar pipeline supports the latest RISC-V specification, including the IMAFD standard instructions, “C” 16-bit compression instructions, “P” DSP extension instructions, “V” vector extension instructions and “N” for user-level interrupts. It brings enhanced performance in memory subsystem with higher bandwidth and latency reduction by supporting multiple outstanding data access. NX27V features branch prediction, instruction and data caches, local memories, ECC error protection, and Andes Custom Extension™ (ACE) to add proprietary instructions to accelerate performance/power consumption critical spots. It also includes vectored and preemptive interrupts to serve diversified system events. AXI data bus for wide data access, PowerBrake and WFI mode for rich power management, and JTAG debug interface and trace interface for software development support. NX27V contains powerful Vector Processing Unit (VPU). It is ideal for applications with large arrays of data such as machine/deep learning, AR/VR, cryptography, multimedia processing, networking and scientific computing. • AndeStar™ V5 Instruction Set Architecture, RISC-V technology compliant • RISC-V vector extension • Vector Processing Unit (VPU) boosts performance of AI, AR/VR, computer vision, cryptography, and multimedia processing • Andes extensions for performance and functionality enhancements • Licensable Andes Custom Extension™ for customized acceleration • 64-bit CPU architecture, enabling software to address memory beyond 4G bytes • 16/32-bit mixable instruction format for compacting code density • Branch predication to speed up control code • Return Address Stack to speed up procedure returns • Physical Memory Protection and Programmable Physical Memory Attributes • MemBoost for heavy memory transactions • Configurable Platform-Level Interrupt Controller (PLIC) for range of system event scenarios • vectored interrupt handling • Advanced CoDense technology
ANDES TECHNOLOGYSixteen years in business and a Founding Premier member of RISC-V International, Andes is a leading supplier of high-performance/low-power 32/64-bit embedded processor IP solutions, and a main force to take RISC-V mainstream. Andes’ fifth-generation AndeStar™ architecture adopted the RISC-V as the base. Its V5 RISC-V CPU families range from tiny 32-bit cores to advanced 64-bit cores with DSP, FPU, Vector, Linux, superscalar, and/or multicore capabilities. The annual volume of Andes-Embedded SoCs has exceeded 2 billion since 2020 and continues to rise. To the end of 2020, the cumulative volume of Andes-Embedded™ SoCs has reached 7 billion.
