ARM and Green Hills Software announce they have collaborated on
an optimized compiler for the ARM® Cortex®-R5 processor that
delivers record-setting automotive performance, enabling the
Cortex-R5 processor to meet the needs of the most challenging
automotive applications more cost-effectively than any other MCU
solution currently available. EEMBC® Labs have certified the Green
Hills compiler, version 2015.1 as having achieved a performance
score of 1.01EEMBC Automarks/MHz on the Cortex-R5 automotive MCUs
from Spansion. This represents a 30% increase on previous
performance scores.
The Green Hills toolchain has a strong functional safety
pedigree – having received certificates by accredited independent
agencies TÜV Nord and Exida at the highest levels of automotive and
industrial functional safety, including ISO 26262 ASIL D and IEC
61508 SIL4. This combined level of certification and performance
will enable the Cortex-R5 to deliver performance, safety and cost
advantages to automotive systems developers as it eliminates the
need for custom MCU architectures.
“Processor and compiler technology go hand in hand, and ARM’s
investment in supporting and working with its development tools
ecosystem is unrivalled,” said Richard York, vice president,
embedded marketing, ARM. “The automotive and industrial markets are
demanding multi-sourced, powerful and standardized MCUs supported
by well-established tool chains such as Green Hills. In an industry
where safety is a critical success factor, the reputation that
ARM’s ecosystem enjoys with top tier OEMs and suppliers is a major
advantage.”
“Green Hills Software is pleased to see our continued
collaboration with architecture specialists at ARM raise the bar
for automotive and industrial code performance on ARM processors,”
said Dan Mender, vice president, business development, Green Hills
Software. “Cortex-R5 supports powerful performance and safety
features that our latest compiler optimizations unlock for
customers choosing this industry-proven processor in
performance-sensitive markets.”
The Spansion Traveo™ family of Cortex-R5 based automotive MCUs
builds upon the highly successful Cortex-R4 based FCR4 family,
providing scalability, real-time processing and high-performance in
applications where safety is paramount.
“An Automark score of 192 for a cost-effective automotive grade
MCU at this price point sets a new bar for affordable MCUs in body,
driver information and powertrain applications,” said Takeshi Fuse,
senior vice president, automotive MCUs, Spansion. ”Combined with
the recent announcement from ARM of a comprehensive safety package
for the Cortex-R5 processor for ISO 26262 and IEC 61058
applications, we expect a further boost to the growing momentum of
Cortex-R5 and the Spansion Traveo family in automotive and
industrial safety products.”
Building upon the wide adoption of the Cortex-R processor family
in automotive and industrial applications, there have been a number
of recent new products based on the Cortex-R5 processor. The
Cortex-R5 provides advanced fault management features and a
comprehensive safety package for a wide range of ISO and IEC
standards. The unrivalled choice of MCU suppliers and the widest
ecosystem offer industrial and automotive OEMs and tier one
suppliers assurance of supply.
