Green Hills Software Supports Latest Versions
of the Intel Atom Processor Z5xx Series
Proven and Certified RTOS and Tools for New Industrial Temperature
Processors
SANTA
BARBARA, CA—MARCH 3, 2009 —Green Hills Software, Inc.,
the world leader in secure operating
systems, today announced the early availability of its embedded
software development solution for the latest options for the Intel® Atom™ processor
Z5xx series, which include an industrial temperature range of -40˚
C to +85˚ C. These are the Intel Atom processor Z520PT and the Intel
Atom processor Z510PT. The Green Hills Software solution includes the INTEGRITY® real-time
operating system and virtualization technology, MULTI® integrated
development environment (IDE), optimizing
C/C++ compilers, and DoubleCheck™ static
analyzer. Green Hills Software brings more than 25 years of experience
in the embedded market, enabling customers to create and deploy reliable,
high-performance products for industrial control, automotive infotainment,
and a wide variety of other embedded applications in the least amount
of time and at the lowest cost.
INTEGRITY for the Intel Atom Processor Z5xx Series
The INTEGRITY RTOS’ unique and modern technology achieves unprecedented
levels of security, safety, and availability for applications in industrial
control, transportation, medical, aerospace, and other industries. INTEGRITY
is the foundation for Green
Hills Software’s Platform for Industrial Safety, with certification
by TÜV to IEC 61508 at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3). INTEGRITY
is also the first operating system technology certified to EAL6+ High
Robustness, the highest Common Criteria security level ever achieved
for an operating system. Only an EAL6+ High Robustness operating system
is certified to protect high value resources from sophisticated attackers.
The Ultimate Open Platform
With open standards support, POSIX conformant interfaces, and the
ability to host general purpose operating systems, such as Linux, in
virtual machines, INTEGRITY can run more application software than any
other operating platform. At the same time, INTEGRITY maintains the absolute
highest level of security and real-time determinism for critical components,
algorithms, applications, and subsystems. INTEGRITY on Intel’s
Atom processor brings the world’s most ubiquitous architecture
and its ecosystem of software to power-constrained, high reliability
embedded systems.
“We are pleased to support the new industrial temperature options
for the Intel Atom processor Z5xx series,” commented Dan Mender,
vice president of business development, Green Hills Software. “Modern
embedded system designs place ambitious reliability, time-to-market,
and time-in-market demands on hardware and software designers. The combination
of INTEGRITY and the Intel Atom processor Z5xx series platform provides
a compelling solution to this challenge.”
“We recently added industrial temperature options to the Intel
Atom processor platform for our embedded customers who need to deploy
low-power products in unconstrained thermal environments,” said
Jonathan Luse, director of marketing, Intel Low Power Embedded Products
Division. “The Intel Atom processor Z5xx series platform provides
a robust performance-per-watt solution for running Green Hills Software’s
tools and operating systems in the industrial and automotive market segments.
In addition to the INTEGRITY real-time operating system, the integrated
Green Hills software development solution for the Intel Atom processor
Z5xx series consists of the following components:
- Comprehensive portfolio of embedded communications, 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 high-quality and
efficient code for the Intel Architecture
- DoubleCheck™ integrated static analyzer – increasing software
reliability and reducing time-to-market by eradicating more software
defects early in the development process
