Easily Incorporate Embedded Security Using Microchip’s PIC32CK 32-bit Microcontrollers with Hardware Security Module
29 Aprile 2024 - 2:00PM
New legislation takes effect in 2024, mandating stricter
requirements on cybersecurity on everything from consumer IoT
devices to critical infrastructure. Meeting these new security
compliance requirements from a product and supply chain perspective
can be complex, costly and time-consuming. To provide developers
with an embedded security solution that allows them to design
applications that comply with these requirements, Microchip
Technology
(Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces the new
family of
PIC32CK 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs)
with an integrated Hardware Security Module (HSM) subsystem and
Arm® Cortex®-M33 core featuring TrustZone® technology to help
isolate and secure the device.
The PIC32CK SG is the first 32-bit device on the market that
combines the strong security of an HSM with TrustZone technology, a
hardware-based secure privilege environment. Microchip’s latest
innovation for mid-range MCUs provides designers with a
cost-effective embedded security solution for their products that
meets the latest cybersecurity mandates. The inclusion of an HSM
provides a high level of security for authentication, secure debug,
secure boot and secure updates, while TrustZone technology provides
an additional level of protection for key software functions. The
HSM can accelerate a wide range of symmetric and asymmetric
cryptography standards, true random number generation and secure
key management.
The PIC32CK MCUs from Microchip are designed to support ISO
26262 functional safety and ISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity standards.
For increased flexibility and cost efficiency, the PIC32CK MCU
family offers a wide range of options to tune the level of
security, memory and connectivity bandwidth based on the end
application’s requirements. Options include up to 2 MB dual-panel
Flash and 512 KB SRAM, with various connectivity options like
10/100 Ethernet, CAN FD and USB.
“Emerging requirements make security mandatory for the majority
of IoT connected devices. The PIC32CK makes it cost effective to
provide hardware-based security to mid-range microcontroller
applications,” said Rod Drake, corporate vice president of
Microchip’s MCU32 and MPU32 business units. “Microchip’s ecosystem
of tools and security expertise help our customers navigate the
complexities of the new requirements and provide lifecycle support
for their products.”
For product supply chains that require additional security and
safety protection such as in industrial designs, medical devices,
home appliances and consumer IoT devices, the PIC32CK will be
supported with Microchip’s Trust Platform Design Suite for
provisioning as a service. This platform enables the secure factory
provisioning of keys, certificates and IP without the need to
reveal these secrets within the supply chain.
Development Tools
The 32-bit PIC32CK MCU family is supported by Microchip’s
software platforms including MPLAB® Harmony v3 and
Trust Platform Design Suite. The PIC32CK family is
also supported by the PIC32CK SG and PIC32CK GC Curiosity Ultra
Development Boards including the EV33A17A and
EV44P93A.
Pricing and Availability
The PIC32CK family is now available for purchase in high-volume
production quantities. For additional information and to purchase,
