Green Hills Software and ARC International Announce MULTI Development Environment and Debug Probe Support for Configurable ARC Processors.


SANTA BARBARA & SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Green Hills Software, Inc., the market leader in embedded software development tools and royalty-free real-time operating systems (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. ), and ARC International, the world leader in configurable CPU/DSP processor cores and application subsystems, today announced immediate availability of Green Hills Software's optimized MULTI MULTI Multiple  Integrated Development Environment See IDE.

Slingshot allows the delivery of real time market data across the Internet and private intranets quickly, cheaply and securely.
 debug device for ARC International's full line of configurable processors.

"Our partnership with Green Hills Software is another example of how ARC provides its customers with a complete design environment comprised of industry-standard tools and software from leading vendors," said Derek Meyer, vice president of marketing at ARC. "The combination of Green Hills Software's MULTI IDE and debug probes with ARC's ARCangel prototyping system and MetaWare C compiler gives engineers a powerful, tightly integrated system for developing sophisticated applications. The results are reduced total cost of ownership and faster time-to-market parameters for customers leveraging this optimized platform."

"We have expanded our product line to service the growing number of customers using ARC's leading-edge configurable technology," said Craig Franklin, vice president of advanced products at Green Hills Software. "Working with ARC, our engineering teams have produced a world-class development environment that has been customized for the ARC processor. Users have already adopted this solution in order to accelerate the time-to-market of their products."

--Custom RTOS support - Kernel and multitask-aware debugging for ARC boards running Express Logic's ThreadX RTOS. Special commands allow tasks to be stopped upon system events such as task creation.

ARC(TM) 600 and ARC 700 Cores

The ARC 600 core is optimized to deliver high performance in a small silicon area with minimal power consumption. The ARC 700 core is the smallest 32-bit 400 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc.  processor available today, and supports complex applications with an MMU (Memory Management Unit) The part of the computer that governs memory access. Either part of the CPU chip or housed on separate chips, the MMU controls memory partitions and virtual memory. See memory and virtual memory.

 and processing modes that enable feature-rich and secure operating systems. Both the ARC 600 and ARC 700 cores are DSP-enhanced and eliminate the need for additional signal processing engines.
