LynuxWorks and ADI Engineering Announce Embedded Linux Development Environment for ADI's Latest Reference Design Platform for the Intel i80200 XScale Microarchitecture.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers Intel Developer Forum Intel Developer Forum (IDF), is a twice yearly gathering of technologists to discuss Intel products and products based around Intel products. The first IDF was in 1997. There is usually a Spring IDF and a Fall IDF. 2002 SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 26, 2002 ADI to Distribute BlueCat Embedded Linux With Its High Performance Board LynuxWorks, Inc. today announced that ADI Engineering today has signed a distributor agreement to offer BlueCat(R) Linux with its reference card design for the Intel(R) i80200 XScale(TM) microarchitecture, the BRH BRH - Branch and Hang . The software/hardware combination provides customers with an end-to-end solution for developers designing low-power, high-performance applications such as data communications, networking, video processing, and broadband gateways. Users can create their own custom platforms or employ ADI for specialized consulting and design. The BRH has demonstrated significant new performance levels for i80200 processor operation and data throughput, while providing configurable, big and little-endian mode support. A key differentiating performance feature is its memory interface bandwidth, which benchmarks at 788MB/s sustained operation -- a five-fold improvement over first-generation i80200 processor memory controller chips. The BRH is an ideal development platform for low-power, high-performance applications and features a PCI (1) (Payment Card Industry) See PCI DSS. (2) (Peripheral Component Interconnect) The most widely used I/O bus (peripheral bus). expansion slot, dual Ethernet ports, and unmatched sustained SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) A type of dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that has been widely used since the late 1990s. SDRAM chips eliminated wait states by dividing the chip into two cell blocks and interleaving data between them. bandwidth. LynuxWorks' BlueCat Linux is an open-source embedded development environment without run-time royalties. Packaged with either a Windows or Linux/Solaris host integrated development environment See IDE. integrated development environment - interactive development environment (IDE), commercial grade tools, and support programs, BlueCat meets the diverse needs of individual developers. "We are enthusiastic about our relationship with ADI," says Bob Morris, vice president of marketing and sales at LynuxWorks. "Customers now have a premier time-to-market solution for very high-performance, Linux-based applications." "Embedded Linux is an excellent application environment for the i80200 Intel(R) XScale(TM) microarchitecture," said Steve Yates, president of ADI Engineering. "We selected LynuxWorks' embedded Linux package, BlueCat, to distribute with our BRH card because it is a well recognized in the embedded Linux community, offers great documentation and support, and its Windows and Linux hosted IDE's and profiler tools are simply world class." ADI Engineering will demonstrate the BRH and BlueCat at its booth at the Intel Developer's Forum, February 25-28 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California “San Francisco” redirects here.
