Microchip introduced a memory-segregated microcontroller (MCU) that eliminates the need to store programs on separate chips in a multiparty design. Its dsPIC digital signal controllers and PIC24H MCUs are the first 16-bit devices with advanced memory security features that allow collaborative sharing of memory, interrupts and peripherals on a single chip, without compromising individual intellectual property (IP).
In embedded applications, OEMs, design houses and software vendors face some critical IP protection issues while collaborating on system designs. Microchip's CodeGuard security can eliminate these concerns by enabling OEMs to separate three segments of on-chip memory - the Boot Segment, Secure Segment and General Segment - with tiered levels of security.
