Green Hills Software has announced that its complete product suite, including the MULTI integrated development environment, INTEGRITY, velOSity, and μ-velOSity royalty-free real-time operating systems, TimeMachine tool suite, Green Hills compilers, and Green Hills probe is now available for the ARM Cortex family of processors. The addition of support for Cortex processors reaffirms Green Hills as a leading 3rd-party supplier of device software optimization solutions across the wide array of ARM technology offerings.

The Green Hills solution for the Cortex processor family consists of the following components:
• MULTI integrated development environment – providing the industry leading DSO tool set for embedded software developers
• Green Hills compilers for ARM processors – providing industry-leading code generation in terms of code size and performance
• INTEGRITY, velOSity, and µ-velOSity real-time operating systems – providing support for the broadest range of applications, from the most resource-constrained and cost-sensitive devices up to systems requiring the ultimate in reliability and security
• Green Hills probe and SuperTrace probe – providing reliable and efficient debugging using the ARM CoreSight debug port
• TimeMachine tool suite – taking advantage of the ARM CoreSight trace port to enable debugging forwards and backwards in time to find the most elusive bugs, optimize with ease, and test with confidence

The ARM Cortex processor family with its ARMv7 ISA provides an impressive performance to footprint ratio,” said David Kleidermacher, chief technology officer at Green Hills Software. “The combination of these processors with the Green Hills ARM/Thumb-2 compilers, MULTI IDE, and INTEGRITY family of RTOSes, that are already ported and running on Cortex family processors, provides a compelling solution for developers and OEMs.

“With broad support for our processor families, Green Hills Software has long been an important component of the ARM ecosystem. We are delighted that Green Hills continues this long tradition by providing a complete solution of tools and operating systems for ARM Cortex processors,” commented John Cornish, VP product marketing, processors, ARM.
