It's been 35 years since the SNES first launched as the Super Famicom in Japan, complete with a sound chip designed by the ...

Star Fox featured a coprocessor chip, the Super FX, that was effectively a GPU used to draw polygons in the frame buffer. Without this, Star Fox wouldn’t be 3D, Yoshi’s Island wouldn’t be ...

Microchip’s PIC32A 32-bit MCUs feature an FPU coprocessor that performs both 32-bit and 64-bit operations for math-intensive ...

Also called a "floating point unit" (FPU), the math coprocessor may be a stand-alone chip or circuits built into the CPU. Floating point capability is very important to computation-intensive work ...

A motion processor in the iPhone, starting with the M7 chip in the iPhone 5S. Designed for tracking the user's movement, the Apple motion coprocessor is a low-power unit that reads the output of ...

Graphics processing is performed by a collection of eight GPU cores, the highest number offered on an A-series chip. It also has an embedded M12 coprocessor, used to collect and process sensor data.

The Crypto Coprocessors are a hardware IP core platform that accelerates cryptographic operations in System-on-Chip (SoC) environment on FPGA or ASIC. Symmetric operations are offloaded very ...

“Rather than asking customers to bolt on security processors as you would with a TPM, we‘re building right into the DNA of the processor a security co-processor that’s going to store all of ...

The Cryptographic Coprocessor is a hardware IP core platform that accelerates cryptographic operations in System-on-Chip (SoC) environment on FPGA and ASIC and includes such things as accelerating ...

The EPYC feature referenced by Norrod, AMD's top data center executive, is Secure Encrypted Virtualization, or SEV, which uses an Arm secure co-processor embedded within EPYC chips to ...
