Toshiba Corporation has announced that it has licensed the ARM® Cortex®-A53 processor, the most power-efficient ARMv8-A processor capable of seamlessly supporting 32-bit and 64-bit code. Toshiba will deploy the processor to develop ASSPs (Application Specific Standard Products), such as ApP LiteTM application processors that offer well balanced power-efficiency and performance with 64-bit capability, and custom products such as FFSATM (Fit Fast Structured Array) and ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) for industrial, networking, IoT, automotive and data storage products. The Company expects to bring products to market at an early date.
