Green Hills Software's Integrity RTOS speeds complex system deployment with integration of Texas Instruments DSP/BIOS Link.Green Hills Software Inc. has announced the integration and availability of the Texas Instruments See TI. (company) Texas Instruments - (TI) A US electronics company. A TI engineer, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit in 1958. Three TI employees left the company in 1982 to start Compaq. Inc. (TI) DSP/BIOS Link technology with the company's INTEGRITY RTOS (1) (RealTime Operating System) An operating system designed for use in a real time computer system. See real time system, embedded system, process control and OS-9. . Designed for the TI OMAP OMAP Office of Medical Assistance Programs (Oregon Department of Human Services) OMAP Open Multimedia Applications Platform (Texas Instruments semiconductor operating system) 5910 dual-core processor, this integration of DSP/BIOS Link for INTEGRITY provides the developer with a standard set of robust microprocessor-to-DSP communications services for the OMAP processor architecture, eliminating the need for developers to create these functions from scratch as required in the past. "Multimedia developers will benefit from the robust set of ARM-to-DSP communications services in DSP/BIOS Link," said Gregory Mar, worldwide OMAP marketing manager, Texas Instruments Inc. "Using Green Hills Software's INTEGRITY RTOS with our OMAP5910 processor will help them to create feature-rich applications in a variety of portable markets." The OMAP5910 delivers the best of both worlds by combining in a single device the real-time processing Noun 1. real-time processing - data processing fast enough to keep up with an outside process real-time operation data processing - (computer science) a series of operations on data by a computer in order to retrieve or transform or classify information capabilities and low-power consumption of TI's TMS TMS Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (alternative medicine for depression) TMS Test Match Special (sports - cricket) TMS Texas Motor Speedway TMS Transportation Management System TMS Toyota Motor Sales 320C55x DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive core, with the flexibility and scalability of a TI-enhanced ARM925 microprocessor. The OMAP5910 was specifically designed for devices that require embedded applications An application that permanently resides in an industrial or consumer device. Providing some type of control function and/or user interface, the software is typically stored in a non-volatile memory such as ROM or flash memory. processing in connected environments such as portable medical devices, point-of-sale and asset inventory applications. The royalty-free INTEGRITY RTOS resides on the ARM925 core and together with DSP/BIOS Link, provides secure management and control for the booting of the DSP along with instantiating the algorithms required by a specific function into DSP internal memory. Dan Mender, director of business development for Green Hills Software, explained, "The integration of the INTEGRITY RTOS with DSP/BIOS Link enables unparalleled application security and reliability allowing OEMs to develop and deploy next-generation secure portable data terminals (PDTs) more quickly and more securely than with other solutions." Development licenses for the DSP/BIOS Link integration on the INTEGRITY RTOS are available in April starting at $4,500. |
