STM and Soitec Cooperate on SiC Substrate Manufacturing Technology

TAIPEI, Taiwan – STMicroelectronics (STM) and Soitec (Euronext Paris) announce the next stage of their cooperation on Silicon Carbide (SiC) substrates...

Fully manufactured in ST's 40nm process technology for cost efficiency, the secure microcontroller includes high performance and integrated crypto-accelerators that together with fast clock speed in a secure micro, enable high performance for fast application execution. It also features a new hardware architecture with strong and multiple fault-protection mechanisms covering the CPU, memories, and buses to facilitate the development of highly secure software.

The latest ST33 family addresses the growing need for secure applications including embedded Secure Element (eSE), SWP (Single Wire Protocol) SIMs for NFC applications, and embedded UICC (Universal Integrated Circuit Card).

These features are critical to protect transactions in areas as diverse as payment applications, the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable consumer devices, to Machine-to-Machine communications in "Industry 4.0" factory automation as well as V2X and in-car communication applications.

"ST's third-generation secure microcontroller is a highly versatile platform designed for multiple secure applications targeting a broad number of electronics devices," said Marie-France Florentin, Group Vice President, General Manager, Secure Microcontroller Division, STMicroelectronics.

The ST33J2M0 features multiple hardware accelerators for advanced cryptographic functions. The EDES peripheral provides a secure DES (Data Encryption Standard) algorithm implementation, while the NESCRYPT crypto-processor efficiently supports the public key algorithm. The AES peripheral ensures secure and fast AES algorithm implementation.
