Green Hills Software and NXP Semiconductors collaborate on vehicle software platform to support SDV development

Embedded safety and security company Green Hills Software has integrated its portfolio of software solutions with NXP Semiconductors’ open S32 CoreRide platform to support OEMs and Tier 1s in the development of software defined vehicles (SDVs).

OEMs and Tier 1s are grappling with efficiently using heterogenous multicore processors integrated with layers of software from disparate sources. OEMs need to create safe and secure software, and deploy the architectures to later upgrade software on vehicles on the road.

“Green Hills is working with global OEM early adopters of the S32 CoreRide platform by providing the safe and secure run-time foundation of hypervisors, real-time operating systems, development tools, and design services,” the company said.

It platform integrates NXP’s broad hardware portfolio with Green Hills Software’s portfolio of foundational software solutions.

Henri Ardevol, executive VP and GM of automotive embedded systems at NXP, said, “The ability to safely and securely consolidate open and mixed-criticality workloads makes this combination an essential software foundation for OEMs to efficiently develop and confidently deploy their SDV innovations.”

This platform aims to present flexible architecture options, supporting all S32 automotive processing platforms, from MCUs to MPUs, and running open-source and commercial software. By consolidating functions from various environments like real-time, AUTOSAR, POSIX, Linux, cloud and standards-based environments, the S32 CoreRide platform has been designed to simplify integration and reduces architectural complexity. It is production-ready, pre-certified for ASIL D safety and compliant with ISO/SAE cybersecurity standards.

Developers can benefit from an OS-agnostic development environment, and expert training and design services tailored to project needs that Green Hills says reduces time-to-market and risks.

Available on NXP’s S32 Automotive Processing Platform, the platform features the Integrity RTOS for high-performance cores and µ-velOSity RTOS for microcontroller cores, alongside the µ-visor hypervisor.

It also includes the OS-agnostic Multi integrated development environment, Green Hills Optimizing Compilers, and integration with MATLAB/Simulink and Embedded Coder for efficient development and testing.

“Green Hills is pleased to be an essential partner in NXP’s S32 CoreRide platform, offering automotive OEMs and Tier 1s the broadest portfolio of pre-integrated and optimized safety- and security-certified software solutions in the industry,” said Dan Mender, VP of business development at Green Hills Software.

“Our production-proven advanced development tools, RTOSes and virtualization services supporting the family of NXP S32 processors enable customers to safely incorporate ECU consolidation, accelerate complex system development and reduce cost and time-to-market for the core vehicle functions of mixed-criticality multicore SDV architectures.”
