Infineon and Green Hills Unveil Breakthroughs in Automotive Safety and Security
Infineon and Green Hills Software are teaming up to offer a full suite for creating and launching safety applications in the automotive sector. This partnership combines Infineon’s Traveo T2G microcontrollers (MCUs) with Green Hills’ reliable software, including the safety-certified μ-Velosity RTOS and the Multi development environment.
By merging these advanced technologies, they aim to give original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) robust, ready-to-use software for developing secure automotive applications. As cars become more digital and e-mobility grows, OEMs want to stand out with unique features. Ensuring the safety and security of these features is also a top priority for them.
This collaboration effectively addresses both performance and safety without increasing memory requirements. The provided solution is easy to implement, helping OEMs cut costs, streamline development, and bring products to market faster.
Infineon’s Traveo T2G MCUs are designed for various automotive applications like body control modules, and control units for doors, windows, sunroofs, and seats. They also support in-car smartphone terminals and wireless charging units. The cluster MCU enhances automotive display systems by offering a scalable and feature-rich graphics engine, suitable for everything from traditional gauges to virtual instrument clusters.
The µ-Velosity RTOS stands out for being small, fast, and easy to program, requiring minimal ROM and booting up swiftly. Its simple API helps reduce development time, lower costs, and speed up time-to-market. For developers transitioning from standalone systems or no-OS setups, µ-Velosity offers a well-established migration path.
With the body MCUs, developers can boost productivity using Multi’s integrated development tools, which include Green Hills’ optimizing C/C++ compilers. Multi also supports debugging and visualization for multicore and multi-OS systems, helping developers spot and fix bugs faster while saving memory and reducing software recalls.
The combination of T2G MCUs and Green Hills’ proven software is ideal for a wide range of automotive applications like electrification, body control modules, gateways, and infotainment systems. This partnership provides OEMs with a comprehensive, easy-to-deploy solution that maintains high standards of quality, performance, and reliability.
