New 8051 IP core is 29X faster than original
Not only that, but the DQ8051’s dynamic power consumption can be as low as 1.2µW/MHz.
“If our DT8051 is the World’s smallest 8051, then the DQ8051 is the World’s fastest 8051 for sure”, claims Kandora, Vice President at Digital Core Design. “The nearest competition stopped at 26x, with the power consumption almost two times higher than DCD’s”.
According to DCD, the DQ8051 Dhrystone score rates at 29.01x the original at the same frequency, with only 7.5k gates while the nearest solution consumes almost 12k gates and achieves not more than a 26x speed improvement.
The DQ8051 is available with USB, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, LIN, HDLC, Smart Card interfaces. It also comes equipped with DoCDTM hardware debugger with unique Instruction Smart Trace technology (IST). IST doesn’t capture addresses of all executed instructions, but only these related to the start of tracing, conditional jumps and interrupts. This method not only saves time but also allows improving the size of the IST buffer and extending the trace history. Captured instructions are read back by DoCD-debug software, analyzed and then presented to the user as ASM code and related C lines.
The DQ8051 is delivered with fully automated testbench and complete set of tests, allowing easy package validation at each stage of SoC design flow.
