Larger and more complex processors are just inefficient.

The Diamond Standard 570T is ideal for customers who want high performance but are hitting the wall with the ARM11 when it comes to area, performance or power, or where large up-front license fees are a barrier.

The comprehensive nature of our tool set allows designers to quickly generate compact, high-performance, production quality code for any or all of our Diamond Standard processors. The tool set also includes a pipeline-accurate instruction set simulator for all six Diamond Standard processors, which enables rapid development of application code.

From a technology standpoint there is very little new. We are putting it into packaging for simpler adoption.

Linux has quickly become one of the most popular operating systems for embedded applications. With our Diamond Standard 232L processor core, we enable designers to develop new systems with significantly reduced power requirements -- essential for handheld mobile applications.

The technology has been proven in silicon.
