Development kit for XMC1000 microcontrollers
Providing developers with a free-to-use professional tool suite for the Infineon XMC1000 microcontroller series, Arm has revealed that Infineon has licensed the Keil Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK) Silicon Vendor Edition. Based on Keil MDK Version 5, the MDK for Infineon XMC1000 includes the genuine ARM C/C++ Compiler, the CMSIS-RTOS RTX Kernel and the µVision IDE/Debugger.
Runtime analysis instantly improves development workflow
An extension to the company's existing embedded development tools, IAR Systems announces the fully integrated and high-performance C-RUN runtime analysis product. This gives developers unique possibilities to analyse their code at an early step and improve development workflow in an instant.
Software offers support for ARM Cortex-A50 processor series
Built on the INTEGRITY RTOS and MULTI IDE, an embedded software development solution has been announced for the ARM Cortex-A50 processor series. The software, from Green Hills Software, enables engineering teams to get a risk-reducing early start on their next-generation high-performance/low-power product designs in automotive, mobile devices, networking infrastructure, industrial, Mil/Aero and the IoT.
Enhanced ARM Cortex-M MCU compiler delivers ultra-rapid prototyping
Delivering ultra-rapid prototyping and code development for ARM Cortex-M based MCUs, Altium have announced a major update of its TASKING compiler suite for ARM. The incorporated Software Platform, the company claims, offers prototyping and code development at an unmatched attractive cost level.
RTOS highlights importance of automotive fail-safe software
Highlighting the importance of functional safety in the development of automotive embedded software, ETAS's RTA RTOS continues to perform in more than a billion ECUs–without a single error in operation.
Embedded database simplifies IoT solutions
Making it possible for manufacturers to build state-of-the-art solutions for the IoT when constant data access and interoperability is important, ITTIA announces that the ITTIA DB SQL database library now supports the AllSeen Alliance AllJoyn communications protocol for wireless communications.
Enhanced security for networking and cryptographic computing
Green Hills Software has integrated its INTEGRITY RTOS, Embedded Cryptographic Toolkit and advanced MULTI IDE with the Freescale Semiconductor C29x cryptographic coprocessor family. This enables designers to accommodate increasing demand for secure processing in government, banking and defence system applications, such as data centre computing, hardware security modules and security appliances.
Software development for ARM Cortex-A50 processors
Compatible with the ARM Fast Model virtual platform, Green Hills Software announce an embedded software development solution for the ARM Cortex-A50 processor series. This enables engineering teams to get a risk-reducing early start on next-generation high-performance/low-power product designs in automotive, mobile devices, networking infrastructure, industrial, Mil/Aero and the IoT.
RTOS reinvented to address IoT opportunities
A RTOS has been reinvented in order to address the new market opportunities created by the IoT. Wind River's VxWorks has been re-architected with a highly modular approach, leading to the separation of the VxWorks core operating system from packages such as the file system or networking stack.
Operating system now supported by Qt cross-platform application & UI framework
At the 2014 embedded World, Digia announced that the Qt cross-platform application and UI development framework, under its Qt Enterprise offering, now supports the QNX Neutrino operating system 6.6. At the trade show Digia demonstrated an evaluation board running Qt Enterprise on the QNX OS as well as a demo based on the QNX CAR Platform for Infotainment.
