RTOS and tools bring safety-certified separation architecture to ARM Cortex-A5
The run-time and development solution brings the unique combination of high performance and real-time determinism with market-specific functional safety options to customers developing medical, smart grid, low-end smart mobile, industrial and automotive devices.
Early global customers are using the INTEGRITY RTOS and the Cortex-A5 architecture in industrial, medical, automotive and railway applications for real-time determinism with high-performance by leveraging the Cortex-A5 multicore architecture and performance accelerators including MMU.
The MULTI integrated software development environment features a multicore debugger, MISRA C/C++ code quality adherence, profiler and many other integrated time-saving tools. The toolchain is compliant to automotive and industrial safety standards ISO 26262 ASIL D, EN50128 SIL 4 and IEC 61508 SIL 4 and includes the TimeMachine debugger and SuperTrace probe for rewind debugging and non-intrusive analysis. The EEMBC-certified C/C++ compilers use the Cortex-A5 performance acceleration units including the latest floating point (VFPv4) and NEON SIMD engine to boost code performance.
“Green Hills has a long and rich history of applying its leading-edge RTOS, compiler, trace debugging and functional safety software technology to ARM-based processors,” said David Kleidermacher, chief technology officer at Green Hills Software. “We’re seeing a growing popularity of Cortex-Ax in all industry segments and we look forward to continuing to enable this trend.”
The Green Hills solution for Cortex-A5 is available today.
