The company EUROS Embedded Systems announces the availability of its\u00a0Real-Time Operating System EUROS<\/strong>\u00a0including the eclipse based Stand-Alone Cross Development Environment EUROS Embedded Studio\u00ae for the\u00a0Hercules\u2122 TMS570<\/strong>\u00a0microcontroller of the company Texas Instruments.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Hercules\u2122 TMS570 family<\/strong>\u00a0of microcontrollers was specially designed to facilitate the implementation of safety-critical applications according to the safety standards\u00a0IEC 61508 SIL 3<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0ISO 26262 ASIL D.<\/strong><\/p>\n The\u00a0TMS570<\/strong>\u00a0is a powerful microcontroller based on an\u00a0ARM Cortex\u00ae-R4F core<\/strong>\u00a0providing hardware mechanisms used for acceleration of computational activities needed to achieve compliance with the safety and security standards. It runs at up to 300 MHz and has a CPU performance up to 500 DMIPS. It provides 512KB of RAM memory, up to 4MB of Embedded Flash memory and offers a wide range of peripheral controllers like Ethernet, FlexRay, CAN, LIN, etc.<\/p>\n Furthermore, the\u00a0TMS570 microcontroller<\/strong>\u00a0offers advanced integrated security features together with scalable power density, connectivity and storage options.<\/p>\n Its architecture enables an easy integration into a 1oo1D lockstep configuration, which provides protection against multi-bit memory errors, keeping a simple, easy to use single core programmer’s model at the same time. The Hercules implementation of the Cortex-R4F CPU includes also an MPU, thus protecting the RTOS core and stack from invalid execution by tasks as well as protecting data from corruption and providing a tight control over externally loaded applications. The\u00a0TMS570 microcontroller<\/strong>\u00a0has an on-chip flash memory, equipped with single error correction, dual error detection (SECDED) and error-correcting code (ECC) diagnostic. In addition, it supports the use of a hardware logic BIST (LBIST) engine and self-test controller (STC), thus providing a very high diagnostic coverage on the lockstep CPUs at transistor level.<\/p>\n These and many another key functional safety features like monitoring of the external clock, monitoring of the voltage and MCU state monitoring via external watchdog logic make the\u00a0Hercules\u2122 TMS570<\/strong>\u00a0an outstanding microcontroller for functional safety products in automotive, railway and aerospace applications.<\/p>\n Especially for the\u00a0TMS570 family<\/strong>\u00a0of microcontrollers EUROS Embedded Systems offers all needed device driver packages, graphics libraries and network protocols like serial, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, TCP\/IP, USB, OPC UA, Embedded Wizard, Qt, etc.<\/p>\n The newly established\u00a0OPC UA<\/strong>\u00a0communication standard was also made available for the\u00a0Hercules\u2122 TMS570 family<\/strong>\u00a0of microcontrollers operating under\u00a0EUROS<\/strong>\u00a0control. The\u00a0OPC UA stack<\/strong>\u00a0provides the service-oriented architecture needed for establishing of the interoperability of devices and services within the new emerging technologies such as Industry 4.0, Smart Home or Internet of Things.<\/p>\n The whole development process is backed up by the eclipse based Cross Development Environment\u00a0EUROS Embedded Studio\u00ae<\/strong>. It allows an individual, application-specific and fully automatic configuration of the system software and offers a range of additional development tools – such as graphical components configurator, real-time tracing, static code analysis, code coverage, RTOS-awareness, etc., that significantly support and facilitate the development of embedded applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Texas Instruments TMS570 Hercules microcontroller hosts safety critical applications under […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3882,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4755","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-euros-embedded-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
