These customizable solutions sets will be available on the market immediately to support embedded developers worldwide using Marvell's PXA3xx series application processor.
EJ-Debug
A compact, USB-powered JTAG emulator that supports software development of an embedded device using Marvell's PXA3xx series application processor. Sophia's C/C++ high-level language debugger, Watchopint® is included and not only supports development of the boot loader and board-control source code, but also supports the development of programs at the assembly level. It allows the downloading of multiple modules at the same time, in order to debug the different applications that run on the RTOS. The project tree window also allows easy access to all global symbols, source files, and functions.
A reference design platform with all the peripherals necessary for the development of hand-held devices - from car navigation systems to PDA's & other WiFi and multimedia devices. The Sandgate 3 is an excellent design base for any high-tech handheld device.
Sophia's embedded development tools enable engineers around the globe to develop their software at the same time as their own hardware platform is being designed, shortening the overall system development time.
"Sophia Systems has successfully developed tools and reference platforms for our PXA 25x and 27x generation of application processors", said Gary Forni, Director of Platform Enabling, Cellular Handheld Group at Marvell. "We are pleased to see their continued support for our application processors.
