March 22, 2010 — Green Hills Software announced embedded software solutions for the Texas Instruments Sitara AM3505 and AM3517 microprocessors (MPUs) based on the ARM Cortex-A8. ARM-optimized solution includes the INTEGRITY real-time operating system (RTOS), MULTI integrated development environment (IDE), optimizing C/C++ compilers and Green Hills Probe. INTEGRITY for TI’s Sitara ARM Cortex-A8 MPUsThe unique architecture of the INTEGRITY RTOS achieves unprecedented levels of security, safety and reliability for applications in industrial control, automation, transportation, medical and other industries. The INTEGRITY RTOS is the foundation for Green Hills Software’s Platform for Industrial Safety, with certification by TÜV and Exida to the stringent IEC 61508 safety standard at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL 3), and also for the Green Hills Platform for Medical Devices, providing artifacts for the operating system to support FDA approval submissions. In addition to the INTEGRITY real-time operating system, the integrated Green Hills Software development solution for TI’s Sitara AM35x MPUs consists of the following components:

  • Comprehensive portfolio of embedded communications, graphics, file systems, and other middleware
  • MULTI integrated development environment – providing the leading software development tool set for embedded software developers
  • Green Hills optimized C/C++ compilers – generating highest-performance and smallest-footprint code for the ARM architecture
  • Green Hills Probe – providing low-level control of the ARM core for device driver development, board bring-up, and system debugging
  • TI’s Sitara AM35x MPUsThe AM3505 and AM3517 are MPUs based on ARM Cortex-A8 cores running at 500 MHz. These processors allow manufacturers to quickly bring to market devices featuring multiple connectivity options, rich user interfaces and high processing performance at sub one-Watt power levels. The AM3505 and AM3517 integrate numerous peripherals including Ethernet, UART, CAN, SPI, I2C, USB and a rich graphics display subsystem.
