The ARM architecture develops to the industry standard - often heard, but is this message true? Fact is that numerous considerable chip manufacturers offer components on the market which are based on the ARM architecture. So it's time for a technical update to the topic ARM.
The spectrum of the conference program covers the entire need of a developer for ARM based systems, with the following main topics:

Hardware development: ARM architectures, ARM components, Microcontroller designs, Memory expansion, Memory management, Power management, Bus and system integration, SoC Design

Software development:ARM with operating systems, Secure systems, Signal processing

Debugging and verification: Debug techniques and Tools, Verification process

Review: ARM7 Hands-On Workshop 2007
 
We would like to draw your attention to an ARM7 workshop conducted by our partner ESAcademy.

With ARM7 one has many choices: there are many manufacturers for chips, compilers, debuggers and software libraries and source codes like Real-Time Operating Systems and communication stacks (for Ethernet, CAN, USB and others). Of course there are performance differences between all of those, however, it is generally underestimated how sever these differences can be.
Making all the "good" choices versus making all the "bad" choices may result in differences of up to a factor of 50 (fifty). Meaning that at the same core frequency the "good" version executes 50 times faster than the "bad" version.
Participate in this workshop to learn what the major technical differences between selected chips, compilers and libraries are. Get the tools and skills to determine for yourself which combination of chips and software tools bring the best performance to your application.

As a partner of ESAcademy we can offer you a 20% discount on the workshop.

Review: Chips & Tools 2005 "New debugging technologies and concepts for automotive applications"
   Sindelfingen, Germany

Emulation Side Booster as an emulation concept puts special requirements for developing systems to the support of new on-chip debug functions. The tool concept, the necessary abstraction steps and the application possibilities were introduced at the example of the TriCore TC1796 by PLS GmbH.

Review: Chips & Tools 2004 "Microcontroller, DSPs, Development Tools"
   Karlsruhe, Munich, Germany

Theme: "System test and service via CAN bus", presented by PLS GmbH. Latest microcontroller like the TC1130 (32 bit) and XC167 (16 bit) from Infineon support a bootstrap loader mechanism via CAN bus. The topic showed principle and the new possibilities that arise from it for the system test and the service. The demonstrated programming of internal and external Flash memories via CAN bus showed the application of the principle in practice.

Review: Developer forum "Embedded Software, Debugging & Analysis"
   München, Germany

The developer forum dealt with the draft and test of embedded software. PLS GmbH introduced the "component-based debugging of systems on a chip": Configuration and assessment of systems on the basis of embedded microcontroller cores cause new debugging and system evaluation tools. PLS showed advantages, disadvantages and architecture examples.
