Simplicity SDK Platform - CPC Version 4.9.0 - Release Notes (Jun 23, 2026)#

Simplicity SDK Platform Version 6.1.0

The Co-Processor Communication (CPC) framework enables secure and efficient data exchange between two processors over a shared serial link, acting as a multiplexer to support multiple applications simultaneously. Designed with a Linux host (CPC daemon) as the primary device and an EFR(M) device as the secondary, CPC ensures reliable, in-order, error-free communication over encrypted UART or SPI connections.
