STMicroelectronics and Luminary Micro continue to push ARM Cortex-M3-based microcontrollers into the low cost embedded market with new versions offering wider interface support. As Embedded World 2009 exhibition starts in Nuremburg, STMicroelectronics has added a full-speed USB on-the-go (OTG) interface to its range of Cortex-M3-based STM32 microcontrollers. Dubbed the STM32 Connectivity Line, it also includes an Ethernet interface featuring hardware support for ...

Wind River is offering Linux support for Altera’s Nios II embedded processor. The Linux software platform for the Nios II processor is based on Linux 2.6 kernel technology, the GNU 4 tool chain and the Eclipse-based Wind River workbench development suite. The intention is to offer an integrated, network-enabled processor-system reference design that boots Linux on power-up. Implemented on a Cyclone ...

It supports all obligatory JTAG instructions (SAMPLE, EXTEST, BYPASS) as well as INTEST. Additionally, arbitrary user register accesses can be defined

PCIe designs will include the supplier’s first four-lane PCIe-to-local bus bridge chip (GN4124) and the quad multi-rate repeater/re-timer (GN1406), aimed at embedded PCIe applications

IAR Systems has announced the latest version of its Embedded Workbench for ARM Cortex-M3-based processors. This latest version introduces debug capabilities for Cortex-M3 processors that were previously only available in dedicated devices and costly debug probes. Version 5.30 also supports source code compliance checking to the MISRA-C:2004 standard, for high integrity applications such as automotive as well as support for the ARM Cortex ...

NEC’s latest 16-bit flash microcontrollers come with integrated LCD drivers and are designed for use in battery-operated handheld medical diagnostic instruments, building utility meters for gas, water and electricity as well as applications in factory automation. The microcontroller series, which is available from distributor Gleichmann Sunrise, includes 80-pin 78K0R/LF3, 100-pin 78K0R/LG3 and 128-pin 78K0R/LH3 and features an extremely low standby current consumption of just 1.2µA when the LCD ...

Amid hundreds of new microcontrollers launched this week at Embedded World, two UK companies took a new spin on their devices - Cyan and its eCOG controller, and FTDI and its Vinculum chip.
