| SCIOPTA System Software ported to Marvell's® PXA320 |
SCIOPTA Systems AG is announcing the immediate availability of the SCIOPTA Real-Time Operating Systems for the Marvell® PXA320 processor.
The SCIOPTA PXA320 RTOS is written in highly optimized assembler and specifically tuned for the PXA320 processors. This results in a very high performance and a low memory footprint.
SCIOPTA is fully dynamic. All system resources such as modules, processes and message memory pools can be created and killed during run-time.
Beside the fast Real-Time Kernel there is IPS (Internet Protocols, TCP/IP), IPS Applications (Web Server, DHCP, DNS, SMTP, Telnet, TFTP etc.), SFFS (Flash File Systems), USB support, embedded GUI graphics support and the DRUID System Level Debugger available.
Board Support Packages are available for Phytec phyCORE®-XScale/PXA320, Toradex Colibri PXA320 and Keith & Koep Trizeps V - Marvell XScale PXA320.
SCIOPTA is royalty free and supports actually the C/C++ compilers and environments from IAR Systems, GNU GCC and ARM RealView.

| Marvell's® PXA320 Processor |
| Leading the PXA3xx processor family, the PXA320 processor, with scalable performance to 800 MHz, plus additional industry-leading processing features, enables outstanding compute and video performance for high-end, multimedia cell phones and PDAs, industrial embedded solutions, and enterprise-class devices. Built on a low-power 90 nm process technology, and with the ability to dynamically scale voltage and frequency on demand, the PXA320 supports today’s stringent requirements for longer battery life. |
| Key Features and Platform Benifits |
| Scalable, general-purpose processing up to 800 MHz, a 256 KB L2 cache, and a 32-bit DDR memory interface for richer end-user applications, such as browsing Web content or streaming video. Extended headroom allows for execution of multiple applications at the same time, which is a key requirement for today’s wireless client devices with advanced capabilities. |
| Wireless Intel® SpeedStep® technology with Instruction Power Manager software for MIPS/mW power efficiency, delivering long battery life and enabling consumers to spend more time enjoying the rich features their devices and service providers offer. |
| Intel Wireless MMX™ 2 accelerating technology, a 2D graphics accelerator and a 768 KB frame buffer designed to support VGA resolution streaming video, enhances the user’s experience of popular usage models like video playback, video conferencing, camcorder functionality, video telephony, and digital TV. |
| An enhanced set of peripherals eases connectivity to technologies like Wi-Fi, WiBro, WiMAX, and Bluetooth v2.0 and Intel’s Enhanced Quick Capture technology supports camera sensors up to 5 megapixels (MP) for a richer camera application. |

| About SCIOPTA |
SCIOPTA Systems develops, sells, supports and maintains systems software for safety-critical embedded applications.
This includes real-time operating systems, network software, file systems, software for interface bus systems, board support packages and other system software.
SCIOPTA is a message based real-time operating system with many built-in safety functions and is therefore very well suited for software forming part of safety-related systems. SCIOPTA is certified by TÜV to IEC61508 at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3).
But SCIOPTA is more than just an RTOS. It is a new and modern approach to design embedded systems. The direct message passing method allows easy and time-saving design of robust and secure systems. Applications based on the SCIOPTA Method can cover small static SoC designs to large dynamic distributed systems. |
