WEITERSTADT, Germany (PRWEB) August 15, 2005 -- Si-Gate GmbH, a leader in the field of Automotive Electronic Development has announced the addition of a FlexRay Daughter Board to their X-1500 32-bit Field Configurable ECU Platform.
Already gaining wide acceptance throughout the embedded applications industry as the premiere FPGA development platform, the addition of the FlexRay Daughter Board to the Si-Gate X-1500 provides engineers the possibility to efficiently develop applications based on this new protocol. "This added feature is answering our customer requests for a serious hardware offering for this up and coming communication network system. It provides a viable solution for a FlexRay to CAN Gateway." said Robert Newberry, CEO of Si-Gate GmbH.
The Si-Gate X-1500 is a complete 32-bit Field Configurable ECU platform, combining the highly popular 32-bit ARM7TDMI-S or Xilinx MicroBlaze processor core with standard System-on-Chip peripherals and over 150 user programmable I/Os. It is contained within a Xilinx Spartan-3 1.5 million gate FPGA with programmable logic for custom driven IP applications, a robust memory subsystem, and a full suite of Automotive and Industrial peripherals. The X-1500 enables programmable System-on-Chip applications and expands traditional development platforms by including necessary physical layers on-board the ECU. In addition to the newly added FlexRay interface, the X-1500 also supports physical layers for 10/100 Ethernet, JTAG, USB 2.0, 12-bit ADC, High and Low Speed CAN, LIN, K-Line, UART, and SPI along with on-board Flash and SRAM memory.
The Si-Gate X-1500 provides designers with a configurable ECU right out of the box suitable for a wide range of Automotive and Industrial applications. The X-1500 is ideal for projects where flexibility and expandability is needed for future ECU developments.
