Company profile

surecore

Sheffield-based semiconductor IP company developing low-power embedded memory designs for power-constrained and always-on chip applications.

Company overview

Developing low-power embedded memory IP, sureCore supports system-on-chip designers seeking to reduce operating and standby power consumption. Its semiconductor offering combines SRAM products, memory compilers, custom register file architectures and cryogenic IP with custom low-power ASIC and mixed-signal design services. The supplied website identifies the business as operating in the UK but does not specify a headquarters address or town. Products include PowerMiser, PowerMiser Plus, EverOn, MiniMiser and CryoMem/CryoIP. PowerMiser implementations cover 28nm FDSOI and bulk CMOS processes, while EverOn uses a 40ULP bulk CMOS process. Memory compilers generate simulation, layout and timing/power models for EDA workflows. SureFIT provides application-specific SRAM design, and mixed-signal services cover design, layout, technology porting, verification and characterisation. Target applications include artificial intelligence, connected devices, wearables, medical equipment, automotive systems and networking. The website also reports that KU Leuven uses sureCore IP to reduce AI chip power consumption.
