Development Roadmap. All cores in this family are on the development roadmap. None are currently available for delivery. Contact us to discuss your requirements, influence the design, or register interest for early access.

Planned IP cores.

The Root of Trust family will provide the secure foundation layer for PQC-enabled SoCs. These cores handle boot integrity, key lifecycle management, cryptographic command processing, and secure policy enforcement.

ROT-001 Roadmap
Family 7 / Root of Trust

Hardened RV32IMC Core

RISC-V RV32IMC processor with PQC ISA extensions. Hardened execution pipeline for secure control plane operations. Designed for side-channel resistant cryptographic workload management within trusted subsystems.

ROT-002 Roadmap
Family 7 / Root of Trust

DSCA-1 Secure Control Processor

Dedicated secure control and administration processor for cryptographic subsystem orchestration. Manages key lifecycle, enforces access policies, and coordinates multi-algorithm cryptographic operations across the SoC.

ROT-003 Roadmap
Family 7 / Root of Trust

Secure Boot ROM

ML-DSA-65-anchored chain of trust for verified boot. Validates firmware and software images using post-quantum digital signatures before execution. Immutable root of trust anchored in ROM with anti-rollback protection.

ROT-004 Roadmap
Family 7 / Root of Trust

eNVM Key-Store Controller

Embedded non-volatile memory controller for secure key storage. Manages PQC and classical key material with hardware-enforced access controls, secure provisioning, zeroization support, and tamper response integration.

ROT-005 Roadmap
Family 7 / Root of Trust

PKCS#11 v3.1 Command Interpreter

Hardware command interpreter implementing PKCS#11 v3.1 token operations. Translates standard cryptographic API calls into hardware-level operations, enabling direct software integration without custom driver development.

Secure foundation
for PQC silicon.

The Root of Trust family is designed to work together as a cohesive security subsystem. The hardened RISC-V core runs the DSCA-1 control firmware, which orchestrates boot verification, key management, and cryptographic operations through the PKCS#11 interface.

RV32IMC
RISC-V base ISA with PQC extensions for hardware-accelerated post-quantum operations in the secure control plane.
ML-DSA-65
Post-quantum signature anchor for the secure boot chain of trust. FIPS 204 compliant digital signature verification.
PKCS#11
Standard cryptographic token interface (v3.1) for seamless software integration with existing security stacks.
eNVM
Embedded non-volatile key storage with hardware-enforced access policies and secure zeroization support.
