"The strategic partnership we have with ARM reinforces this commitment.
Our collaboration on the packaging of the new ARM9 core-based Integrator for Linux solutions board bundle provides a robust embedded Linux platform solution to our customers that saves time and costs realised throughout the entire design cycle".
The Integrator family, part of the ARM RealView suite of development tools, leverages ARM's unique experience in test chip technology to provide a range of flexible, high-performance development platforms that meet the needs of today's system-on-chip developers.
The Integrator/LPP1 platform is a complete solution using standard Integrator components along with PCI cards for video display and network interface.
It enables development engineers to start integrating their own hardware and software IP into an existing fully supported Linux environment before initial silicon is available, thus saving considerable time and cost, as well as bringing their product to market faster.
LynuxWorks' BlueCat 4.0 is the company's latest Linux distribution, which offers enhanced productivity and performance features.
With VisualLynux, developers have access to a fully integrated and tested crossdevelopment environment to rapidly facilitate specific development requirements.
VisualLynux is an extension of Microsoft Visual Studio developed for Windows technology-hosted development with the added benefit of all the commands and standard GNU tools developers need to streamline the design and creation of applications targeted to run on BlueCat Linux.
The Intergrator/LPP-1 ARM920T core-based porting platform is available from ARM immediately.
