News & PressGreen Hills Software Announces Software Development Solution for Freescale’s MPC5510 Automotive Microcontrollers Immediate Availability of Optimizing Technology for Multicore Body Electronics Controller Family SAE WORLD CONGRESS, DETROIT, MI —April, 16, 2007—Green Hills Software, Inc., the technology leader in device software optimization (DSO) and real-time operating systems (RTOS), today announced the immediate availability of its comprehensive ECU software development solution targeting Freescale’s MPC5510 microcontroller family, built on Power Architecture™ technology. Components of the Green Hills Software development toolkit include: royalty-free RTOSes, optimizing C/C++ compilers for Power Architecture, MULTI® integrated development environment (IDE) with multicore debugger, virtual prototyping platform, TimeMachine™ tool suite and high-speed Nexus hardware probes. Green Hills Software’s solution is tuned for the MPC5510 family’s dual-core architecture. For example, it offers tuned support for the Variable Length Encoding (VLE) instruction set, an extension to the e200 core that is designed to dramatically reduce application memory footprint. As a leading supplier of software development tools for Freescale’s MPC55xx microcontroller family, Green Hills Software has seamlessly integrated its uniquely innovative technology to enable system developers to create high-performance, highly reliable products, based on MPC5510 family devices, in the least amount of time and at the lowest cost. “We welcome Green Hills Software's support for our MPC5510 family as our customers create the next wave of in-vehicle central body and gateway applications based on our high-performance Power Architecture MCUs," said Ray Cornyn, director of Freescale’s automotive microcontrollers operations. “Green Hills Software compilers help our customers unlock the exceptional performance of our dual-core MPC5510 MCUs while keeping code size to a minimum.” “We are pleased to announce the addition of MPC5510 support to the Green Hills Software Platform for Automotive Systems,” stated David Kleidermacher, chief technology officer, Green Hills Software. “The MPC5510 with its low-power, dual-core architecture, enables ECU consolidation to improve size, weight, and power efficiency for next-generation automotive systems. Multicore architectures like the MPC5510, however, require a new generation of powerful development tools – including MULTI and TimeMachine. These provide the visibility, control, and optimized execution profile, which enable developers to migrate and reuse software successfully.” Power Architecture Technology Compilers Green Hills Software’s compilers lead the world in independent compiler benchmark scores for performance and small footprint of generated code. Freescale has used the Green Hills compilers to publish certified scores on the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC) suite. Green Hills Software Development Tools
