/> Timesys LinuxLink for WinPath3-SuperLite will enable customers to quickly and easily build custom Linux-based products for the high-performance, cost-sensitive, communications market segment including wireless and advanced telecom system applications such as mobile backhaul. The initial release for the WinPath3-SuperLite is based on the 2.6.29 Linux kernel which integrates drivers for the reference board peripherals.

Timesys's LinuxLink offers a highly customizable, embedded Linux development environment. The LinuxLink Web Edition allows developers to easily mix and match kernel, toolchain, packages and bootloaders to build just the right Linux distribution for their embedded projects. The flexible LinuxLink Desktop Edition enables developers to focus on building their value-add application by allowing them to easily integrate their own applications, modify the Linux kernel and incorporate their own proprietary packages into the design of their product. And, unmetered, expert Linux support from Timesys is included in every LinuxLink Desktop Edition subscription.

The popularity of Linux continues to grow, and Timesys LinuxLink provides a proven Linux development solution that complements our product offering, said Liviu Pinchas, PMC-Sierra's director, technical marketing, WIN division. With LinuxLink, our customers can take full advantage of the WinPath3-SuperLite advanced architecture, enabling them to create Linux based solutions for the networking and communications market segments and achieve short time-to-market cycles.
