Accelerated Technology's Nucleus PLUS Now Available for Wireless and Multimedia Developers Using the Freescale i.MX1 Applications Processor.MOBILE, Ala. -- Accelerated Technology(R), the Embedded Systems Embedded systems Computer systems that cannot be programmed by the user because they are preprogrammed for a specific task and are buried within the equipment they serve. Division of Mentor Graphics Mentor Graphics, Inc (NASDAQ: MENT) is a US-based multinational corporation dealing in electronic design automation (EDA) for electrical engineering and electronics, as of 2004, ranked third in the EDA industry it helped create. Corporation (Nasdaq:MENT), today announced support for the i.MX1 family of applications processors from Freescale Semiconductor Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. is an American semiconductor manufacturer. It was created by the divestiture of the Semiconductor Products Sector of Motorola in 2004. Freescale focuses their integrated circuit products on the automotive, embedded and communications markets. Inc., beginning with the Nucleus(R) PLUS real-time kernel support for the MC9328MX1 processor. This Nucleus PLUS kernel release will give embedded developers using the MC9328MX1 processor a royalty-free solution in which to build wireless and multimedia applications, including smart phones, wireless personal digital assistants (PDAs) and many other mobile wireless applications. The i.MX1 applications processor based on the ARM920T(TM) core targets next-generation handheld computers, including those with integrated 2.5G and 3G wireless connectivity, smart phones, advanced information appliances, Web browsers The following is a list of web browsers. Historical Historically important browsers In order of release:
Handheld users are increasingly demanding converging wireless and multimedia applications. Combined with this is the need for a proven and robust platform from which to build wireless devices. The Nucleus PLUS kernel is solid and flexible, ideal for the feature-rich capabilities that consumers require from their multimedia applications. Developers using the MC9328MX1 processor will be pleased with the high scalability and small memory footprint Memory footprint refers to the amount of main memory that a program uses or references while running. This includes all sorts of active memory regions like code, static data sections (both initialized and uninitialized), heap, as well as all the stacks, plus memory required to hold of the Nucleus PLUS kernel. The Nucleus kernel also provides efficient, high-performance task management, inter-task communication, inter-task synchronization and component query features for developers using the MC9328MX1 processor. "Freescale's i.MX1 applications processor is designed for low power consumption while providing the performance needed for today's mobile devices," said Renee Mitchell, director of operations, Multimedia and Distribution for Freescale Semiconductor. "i.MX1's high degree of integration, combined with Nucleus RTOS Nucleus RTOS is a real-time operating system (RTOS) and full-featured toolset created by the Embedded Systems Division of Mentor Graphics for various CPU platforms. Nucleus RTOS is part of a complete embedded solution with a full complement of embedded middleware available. support, helps reduce design time -- and that's a benefit all of our customers appreciate." "The adoption of the Nucleus kernel into the wireless telephony telephony without wires, usually employing electric waves of high frequency emitted from an oscillator or generator, as in wireless telegraphy. A telephone transmitter causes fluctuations in these waves, it being the fluctuations only which affect the receiver. See also: Wireless market is growing at a steady rate. The i.MX1 applications processor from Freescale eases the hardware pain of developing a complex wireless terminal while the Nucleus RTOS and its associated middleware products ease the software side of development," said Robert Day Robert Day (1836-1914) was an Irish antiquarian and photographer. Biography Day was involved in his family's extensive saddlery business together with a sports shop well known to Cork anglers. , director of marketing, Embedded Systems Division, Mentor Graphics. Pricing and Availability The Nucleus embedded software Instructions that permanently reside in a ROM or flash memory chip. Embedded software may be immediately available to the CPU or, for faster execution, may be transferred to RAM first and then executed. is sold with source code and without royalty fees. Licenses for the Nucleus software begin at $12,495 US. For more information, please contact Accelerated Technology at 800-468-6853 or info@acceleratedtechnology.com.
