embedded world 2013 has opened doors
embedded world, the biggest exhibition of its kind and the
meeting-place of the international embedded community, has opened
its doors today. Last year, more than 870 exhibitors showed more
than 22,000 visitors the full range of products for embedded
technologies. And even more visitors are expected this year. Our
daily embedded world newsletter informs about (product) highlights which
are on show from Feb 26 to 28 in Nuremberg.

Swissbit
and HCC demonstrate fail-safe embedded storage system Swissbit and
HCC Embedded will demonstrate a completely robust, fail-safe embedded
storage system at the Embedded World. The system is based on a combination
of Swissbit’s Industrial SD Card and HCC’s SafeFAT fail-safe file system.
Fujitsu:
ARM Cortex-M solutions on show Fujitsu Semiconductor Europe will be
showcasing its FM Family ARM Cortex-M-based industrial solutions and FRAM
at Embedded World. The FM Family offers a wide operating voltage range,
including real 5 V operation.
Atlantik
presents Greenvity´s HomePlug Green PHY for LED lighting Atlantik
Elektronik introduces the latest member of Greenvity Hybrii family, the
new Hybrii-Mini GV7013. This chip is compatible to the PLC HomePlug Green
PHY for Smart Grid applications and is ideal for intelligent LED lighting
systems over long distances within the commercial, public and private
sector.
Xilinx
demonstrates Zynq-7000 applications at embedded world Xilinx will
demonstrate applications utilizing its Zynq-7000 All Programmable
System-on-Chip and its supporting ecosystem at Embedded World 2013.
Multiple demonstrations will showcase advanced applications in automotive
driver assistance systems, machine vision, biomedical sensing and
industrial applications.
ST:
ARM Cortex family supported by SEGGER enables richer user
interfaces STMicroelectronics has delivered first samples of a new
microcontroller family that combines high performing ARM Cortex-M4 core
running at 180MHz and graphics-related enhancements, enabling richer user
experiences. Simultaneously, ST is delivering increased software support
for embedded graphics development in conjunction with SEGGER.
TI
spins motors in minutes with sensorless, brushless DC motor
drivers Texas Instruments introduced two 3-phase, brushless DC
motor drivers that allow designers to spin motors in minutes. Traditional
BLDC motor designs require five to 10 components, along with firmware. The
sensorless 5-V, 680-mA DRV10866 and the 12-V, 1.5-A DRV11873 cuts this
component count to one with no firmware required, significantly reducing
board space and system costs.
SiLabs:
long-range wireless Internet connectivity solutions Silicon Labs
and SIGFOX announced a first-of-a-kind collaboration for the rapidly
emerging IoT market. The combination of Silicon Labs’ EZRadioPRO wireless
transceivers and SIGFOX’s Ultra-Narrowband technology enables long-range
wireless Internet connectivity solutions for a wide array of devices such
as smart meters, patient monitors, security devices, street lights and
environmental sensors. |

Berner
& Mattner: improved change management for IBM Rational Statemate
models Berner & Mattner’s new PowerDiff version 9.1 facilitates
the development of complex systems with IBM Rational Statemate. PowerDiff
is the only graphical diff tool for IBM Rational Statemate models and
ensures model consistency as well as traceability of changes during the
system’s entire life cycle.
IAR
supports XMC1000 ARM Cortex-M0 MCUs from Infineon IAR Systems
announces comprehensive support for the XMC1000 family of 32-bit
microcontrollers recently announced by Infineon. The support is available
using IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM, which is a complete set of
high-performance tools for embedded development.
HCC
and Atollic accelerate the debug process for engineers HCC Embedded
and Atollic announced the release of an advanced product that accelerates
the debug process for engineers using Atollic’s TrueSTUDIO C/C++ IDE and
HCC’s eTaskSync verifiable task scheduler. Atollic TrueSTUDIO v4.0 will be
launched at the Embedded World. The TrueSTUDIO debugger will provide
kernel aware debugging for HCC’s eTaskSync scheduler to give engineers a
means to debug embedded systems rapidly.
LieberLieber
and SparxSystems: solutions for model engineering At embedded
world, LieberLieber Software and SparxSystems Software show their
solutions for model engineering on a joint booth. Sparx Systems`
Enterprise Architect isn a powerful UML model platform used by over
300.000 users all over the world. For the first time LieberLieber`s
EnArSys - Systems Engineering and Functional Safety Management (FSM, ISO
26262) with Enterprise Architect – will be presented.
iSYSTEM:
integrated software development with Vector iSYSTEM and Vector
present the integration of CANoe.XCP, CANoe.AMD as well as CANape and
iSYSTEM winIDEA/testIDEA. With their cooperation, iSYSTEM and Vector
respond to the demand for consistent development tools and automated test
tools required especially by the automotive industry. So far, the two
partners have covered different stages of the development and test process
Agilent:
universal flash storage protocol-decoding software for
oscilloscopes Agilent Technologies introduced a software solution
for decoding the Universal Flash Storage protocol on oscilloscopes. The
new protocol decoder provides design and validation engineers with a fast,
easy way to validate and debug their UFS interfaces. UFS is a flash
storage specification for mobile devices, smartphones, digital cameras and
other consumer electronics. |

DATA
MODUL: Pico-ITX SBC with Freescale Vybrid CortexA5 and CortexM4 The
PicoITX form factor with armStoneA5 is perfectly suitable for the
development of powerful applications. The Dual Core Vybrid from Freescale
has a CortexA5-500MHz core unit and a CortexM4-167MHz core. With the
armStoneA5 DATA MODUL is offering a small, strong and extremely cost
efficient SBC.
DSM:
flat embedded system of the third generation DSM Computer presents
at the embedded world for the first time the NanoServer NN-QM67 embedded
system. The 58 mm flat industrial computer is based on Intel Core
processors of the third generation and on the energy-saving Intel QM67
mobile chipset. With the compact, slot-less NN-QM67, DSM augments its
