UltraSoC said it has had a successful period of growth and new technology developments within the last year, both in terms of revenues and licensees.

It also recently announced Alibaba company C-SKY, Esperanto, Kraftway and Microchip as customers. Its core technology improvements include development of its architecture to address high-performance computing and exascale systems, a solution targeting automotive lockstep applications, and an expanded ecosystem for heterogeneous designs incorporating the RISC-V open source architecture, and new patents.
