Green Hills Software Supports Texas Instruments Power-Efficient OMAP-L137 Processor

“Green Hills Software is a leading independent embedded software solutions supplier, long-time member of TI’s developer network and provider of advanced technology for the OMAP™ processors,” said Kanika Carver, OMAP-L1x marketing manager, TI. “Green Hills Software’s tools and operating systems are a great fit for the reliability and performance-critical industrial, professional audio and networking applications at which the OMAP-L137 is targeted.”

The INTEGRITY RTOS’s unique and modern technology achieves unprecedented levels of security, safety, and availability for applications in industrial control, networking, transportation, medical, and other industries. The INTEGRITY RTOS is the foundation for Green Hills Software’s Platform for Medical Devices, providing automatically generated artifacts for FDA submissions, and for the Platform for Industrial Safety, with certification by TÜV to IEC 61508 at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3). INTEGRITY is also the first and only operating system technology certified to EAL6+ High Robustness, the highest Common Criteria security level ever achieved by a software product. Only an EAL6+ High Robustness operating system is certified to protect high value resources at risk of attack from hostile and well-funded attackers. This is secure by anyone’s definition.

“We are pleased to support TI’s OMAP-L137 device,” commented Dan Mender, vice president of business development, Green Hills Software. “Modern embedded system designs place ambitious reliability, power-efficiency, and time-to-market demands on hardware and software designers. The combination of the INTEGRITY RTOS and the OMAP-L137 processor meet this challenge, freeing developers to focus on delivering differentiating applications.”
