The NS9750 microprocessor has entered volume production. Based on the ARM 926EJ-S, the most powerful ARM9 core, the NS9750 provides the highest level of performance and integration available for embedded device networking. NetSilicon has also released the NET+Works 6.1 development tools and networking software suite, an integrated package which lowers customer development risk and accelerates time to market.
"The NS9750 processor is now fully supported by our NET+Works tools suite", said Tim Counihan, Vice President of marketing, NetSilicon.
"With its high degree of performance and integration, the NS9750 reduces the overall cost of developing networked devices enabling manufacturers to easily include both their application and device networking functionality into a single processor.
The integrated approach of the NET+Works development tool suite helps customers achieve dramatic time-to-market reductions, save engineering resources and reduce design risk by eliminating the burden of software sourcing, integration and maintenance".
The NS9750 focuses on flexible connectivity solutions by integrating a broad set of industry-standard peripherals, such as 10/100 Ethernet, PCI or Cardbus, USB (host or device), I2C, 1284, serial ports, GPIO and a cost-effective LCD controller.
Featuring DSP instructions, a Java byte code accelerator, and an MMU, the NS9750 is a high-performance 32bit processor that operates at speeds up to 200MHz.
It provides full duplex 10/100Base-T Ethernet, with more than enough additional processing performance and bandwidth to handle even the most sophisticated embedded applications.
"The NET+Works runtime software suite provides a seamless migration path across Digi's and NetSilicon's families of device servers and NET+ARM processors", said Bruce Berger, General Manager, NetSilicon.
"The release of the NS9750 extends our product lines, helping customers future proof their products and protect their technology investments with a straightforward migration to and across chip-based solutions as production volumes grow".
The NET+Works development tools and software suite enables manufacturers to easily design embedded device connectivity on the NS9750 processor.
The package includes a complete bundle of development tools, debugger, development board, and networking software, including a choice of GNU or Green Hills development tools and royalty-free RTOS, stack, and protocol software.
NS9750s are priced from $14.95 to $19.95 in 10,000 volumes.
NET+Works Suites are priced from $4995 to $14,995.
All are available from stock.
