Development case

OS development consulting / Support

●Assistance to customers’ RTOS, Linux® product development

In embedded OSs such as real-time OS (RTOS) and Linux, it is rare to use the SDK provided by a third party or SoC vendor as is. So, a wide range of knowledge and technology are required in order to achieve target performance and reliability with limited hardware resources.
Our experienced engineers have assisted customers to use embedded OS products and we have also provided embedding platform environment (IP licenses) with power consumption and boot-up time optimized according to their requests.

Support target
SoC ・ARM® core inside SoC
OS ・Linux® distribution (Linux®、Android™etc.)
・Realtime OS (μITRON etc.)
Compiler design ・GNU C Compiler(GCC)
・LLVM Compiler

■Achievement
– Consumer : Optical disc, Digital TV, Camera
– Automotive : Optical disc, Digital TV, Car navigation, DA
– Linux® : Digital TV, Automotive digital TV, Surveillance camera
– RTOS : Consumer DVD/Blu-ray, DSC, Movie


Middleware / Device driver development

●Development of device drivers and middleware to draw out maximum performance of hardware via thorough knowledge of devices

■Use case
Image processing and compression in the camera and digital TV fields
– Image input/output drivers
– Motor control drivers in the consumer electronics and audio fields
– IF control drivers for SD/USB/HDMI®/Ether
