Business Wire
Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the
availability of a combined open-source Linux and Nucleus® operating system (OS) solution
for the Marvell® Sheeva™ MV78200 Dual-core Embedded Processor.
“Our collaboration with Mentor Graphics’ embedded systems team
has allowed Marvell to address the multi-OS needs of our customers
using dual-core processors,” stated Dr. Simon Milner, vice
president and general manager of the Enterprise Business Unit,
Consumer and Communications Business Group at Marvell
Semiconductor. “The performance and real-time qualities of Mentor’s
Nucleus OS complement the power and flexibility of Linux, while
their tools and services give our mutual customers a boost in
product development.”
This dual operating system support was co-developed by Mentor
and Marvell, a leader in storage, communications, and consumer
silicon solutions providing processors for devices that require
enterprise-class performance with low-power consumption.
Applications include network controllers, switches and routers,
high-performance storage, enterprise printers, DVRs, NVRs and video
surveillance, and high-volume SMB gateways.
“Our collaboration with Marvell delivers innovative system
solutions that address the needs and requirements of our mutual
customers today,” stated Glenn Perry, Mentor Graphics Embedded
Systems Division general manager. “Multiple OSs on multicore SoCs,
middleware, and services are critical for today’s low-power,
high-performance devices, so we are excited about the breadth and
depth of capabilities that can be realized with Marvell.”
The MV78200 is a dual-core, high-performance, low-power, highly
integrated processor with the Marvell Sheeva CPU cores. Built on
Marvell’s innovative Discovery™ system controller platform, the
MV78200 is a complete System-on-Chip (SoC) solution, optimized for
low power operation and ideally suited to a wide range of
applications ranging from sophisticated routers, switches and
wireless base stations to high-volume laser printer applications.
Developers can use the dual OSs to manage separate functional
requirements, yet allow them to easily and reliably communicate
with each other. Mentor’s Nucleus OS is a fast, scalable and
deterministic OS that can be used for operational tasks such as
those required in printing drums and ink coverage for enterprise
printers, whereas the Linux OS would be used for user interaction
and communication.
