The availability of this end-to-end offering automates all aspects of embedded software development from board bring-up, to product integration and deployment, to in-field debugging and upgrades.
As a result, the software suite provides a total solution for developers of MPC5200 embedded systems for both mobile and fixed applications in telematics, gateways, industrial control, electronic/medical instrumentation and many others with or without the need for automotive network connectivity.
"Customers have responded overwhelmingly to our MPC5200 with its combination of high performance, low-power consumption and robust I/O", said Bill Pfaff, Vice President and Director of Motorola's Digital Audio, Radio and Telematics organisation.
"With Green Hills Software tailoring its products and technology to our processor, our companies have partnered to give developers a solution designed to reduce time-to-market and cost-to-deploy".
Motorola's 32bit MPC5200 is a highly integrated, cost-effective processor built on the PowerPC 603e core.

The 400MHz MPC5200 delivers 760MIPS and consumes fewer than 850mW.
With an on-chip floating point unit and a wide variety of input/output, the MPC5200 is designed to greatly improve performance in processing-intensive applications such as gateways, industrial controllers, Internet access devices, telematics, global positioning systems, instrumentation and data image processing devices.
Designed for applications that require high performance and high reliability, Integrity is a fast, deterministic, royalty-free RTOS.
Building upon the hardware memory protection facilities of the MPC5200 MMU, Integrity provides a firewall between the kernel and user tasks that prevents errant or malicious code from corrupting user data, the kernel, interprocess communications, device drivers and other user tasks.
Integrity also enhances reliability and determinism by running with interrupts continuously enabled and guaranteeing access to the CPU and memory for critical tasks, even during RTOS system calls.
Other RTOS solutions do not offer this protection or security, leaving systems vulnerable to failure from errant application code, viruses and hackers.
An Integrity simulator (ISIM) enables programmers to develop and test their code on a PC or workstation without the need for the MPC5200 hardware and athereal-time EventAnalyzer enables users to view system and user events graphically.
Integrity is part of a complete solution comprised of Green Hills Software's Multi integrated development environment and Green Hills Probe and Slingshot run control solutions.
