milliSoc is ideal for a small academic team that want to evaluate research hardware in a SoC that can provide real-time processing for applications such as RF / radar signal processing, constrained AI models, low resolution real-time video processing. milliSoC is still under development and we welcome collaborations. 

milliSoC is a mid-ranged reference design within SoC Labs. It provides a real-time system on Chip (SoC) using the Arm Cortex R5, that can be extended for design and evaluation of research blocks or subsystems. milliSoC is being designed as a reusable SoC design that can add memory-mapped experimental hardware, and follows the SoC Labs principle of simplifying the SoC design process with seamless transition from FPGA prototyping to physical silicon fabrication and evaluation.

For the software system, milliSoC is expected to utilise a real-time operating system, as opposed to the bare metal of nanoSoC or the linux operating system used for more complex A class SoC designs.
