Curtiss-Wright: certifiable COTS
modules speed development
Curtiss-Wright announced that its Defense
Solutions division has launched a new family
of DO-254DALC andDO-178CDALC safety
certifiable standard commercial-off-the-shelf
(COTS) processing modules designed for use
in military and civil aerospace applications.
An alternative to more costly custom designs,
Curtiss-Wright’s Safety Certifiable COTS
Modules provide the reduced cost and devel-
opment risk benefits of COTS electronics to
designers of safety-certifiable systems.
Vector: AUTOSAR basic software is
basis for reference integration
For a reference integration of the BMW“BAC4
Release 2” AUTOSAR Core, Vector provides
the BMW Group the AUTOSAR basic soft-
ware MICROSAR. It contains already the new
functions released in AUTOSAR Release 4.2.1
in autumn 2014. The focus is on internal vehi-
cle communications over CAN, FlexRay and
Ethernet and related new concepts. BMW
and its ECU suppliers benefit from shortened
development times due to reduced integration
and testing needs.
IAR: Embedded Workbench
supports ARM Cortex-M7 core
IAR Systems launches version 7.30 of IAR
Embedded Workbench for ARM with full sup-
port for the new ARM Cortex-M7 processor
core. The processor brings high performance
and efficient processing to support devices
featuring embedded intelligence across the
industrial, infrastructure and domestic sec-
tors. Using IAR Embedded Workbench to
develop applications based on the new pro-
cessor enables unique possibilities in perfor-
mance and energy efficiency.
Cadence and ARM expand
SoC design collaboration
Cadence Design Systems and ARM today
announced the signing of a multi-year Tech-
nology Access Agreement. Expanding upon
the successful EDA Technology Access Agree-
ment signed in May 2014, this new agreement
gives Cadence rights to access to existing
and future ARM Cortex processors, ARM
Mali GPUs, ARM CoreLink System IP, ARM
Artisan physical IP, and ARM POP IP. This
partnership enables ARM and Cadence to
continue providing customers with advanced
low-power and high-performance system-on-
chip design solutions for markets including
next-generation mobile, consumer, network-
ing, storage, automotive and IoT.
Amplicon: Ethernet extension support
speeds of up to 50Mbps at 300 meters
The ED3101 is a rugged low cost Ethernet
extender that offers long distance communica-
tion over copper wires and can support speeds
of up to 50Mbps at 300 meters and 1Mbps at
1900 meters. Ethernet extension doesn’t need
to be expensive or difficult, the ED3101 is an
easy to use, cost effective Ethernet extender
that features plug-and-play installation using
existing copper twisted-pair infrastructure
to connect Ethernet devices and networks at
high speeds over long distances.
