Frontier Silicon will introduce a unified digital radio receiver module to work with all existing Band 3 and L-Band digital radio standards for Europe and Asia. The new receiver addresses the market need for a solution that supports all Eureka-147 based standards, including DAB and DAB+ and DMB-Audio.

Green Hills Software has announced the immediate availability of its comprehensive software development solution targeting Texas Instruments’ DM355 DaVinci digital media processor. Components of the Green Hills development toolkit include: royalty-free real time operating systems, optimizing C/C++ compilers for ARM, MULTI integrated development environment (IDE), DoubleCheck integrated static source code analyzer and high-speed JTAG hardware pr...

Responding to market demand in defense and telecommunications sectors, Aonix has launched into the development of PERC Ultra SMP, a symmetric multiprocessing Java virtual machine. Boasting the strengths of Java-scalability, portability and easy maintainability-PERC Ultra SMP will include unique garbage collection capabilities to ensure that it can meet the demands of multiprocessor real-time applications. 

Analytica has launched a new CAN Ethernet gateway with a ARM9 processor based on Linux (Kernel 2.6). The AnaGate CAN duo is substantially more efficient than the established AnaGate CAN model because of its 32 bit processor. With full bus utilization at high bus speed (e.g. 1MBit) on the CAN field bus all CAN messages can be processed and sent on to the personal computer by a AnaGate CAN duo.

LDRA, provider of the most complete automated software verification, source code analysis and test tools covering the full development lifecycle, has enhanced the capabilities of the LDRA tool suite to comply with the released version of the MISRA C++:2008 standard from the Motor Industry Software Reliability Association (MISRA).

IES5502 is a truly bi-directional hot insertion bus buffer with low input output offset voltage and compliant I2C signals. The IES5502 extends the functionality of the IES5501 to include hot insertion logic with pre-charge.

Connect One has released Mini Socket iWiFi, a new embedded serial-to-WiFi module that quickly and easily connects embedded devices running machine-to-machine (M2M) applications to 802.11b/g wireless LANs with minimal programming. Mini Socket iWiFi’s extremely compact size, battery save modes, and advanced roaming features make it an ideal solution for mobile M2M devices.
