Accelerated Technology® (AT) has supported the ARM family of
processors with their proven Nucleus® real-time software for more
than 10 years. This code|lab release greatly expands AT's Real-Time
Operating System (RTOS) offering to developers building high
performance, low power applications.

date. The goal of our engineering team is to support as many CPUs,
connections, and targets as possible," said Neil Henderson, general
manager of Mentor's Embedded Systems Division. "As one of the
industry's longest supporters of ARM technology, we are well
positioned to take a major role in providing tools and embedded
software for embedded developers using the ARM architecture."
Accelerated Technology's code|lab Developer Suite is a
comprehensive set of software and hardware components that works
out-of-the-box in a configuration that is customized to meet the exact
combination of requirements for individual product designers. code|lab
gives developers a flexible and seamless software and hardware tool
suite in which to build their embedded application from start to
finish and get it to market quickly. It is the only product of its
kind to provide both software and hardware components in one powerful,
ready-to-use kit.
Support for code|lab for the ARM family includes code|lab EDE, an
embedded development environment, and code|lab Debug, a multitasking
debugger, which supports a large variety of targets and connection
devices. In fact, this version of code|lab supports more connections
across ARM platforms than other debuggers in the embedded industry.
Examples of code|lab connections include the ARM Multi-ICE®
emulator, BDI2000, monitors, Partner-J, RDI, Wiggler and Raven
(Macraigor) devices and more -- all on ARM platforms. The selection of
tool sets available for this code|lab release includes the ARM
Developer Suite(TM) software, and MetaWare tools.

solutions."

networking applications (ATM, broadband access platforms, RAID, remote
monitoring and web switches) and wireless multimedia devices (PDAs,
smart cellular phones and hand held devices that feature digital audio
decompression) will greatly benefit from AT's latest out-of-the-box
solution.
