congatec udvider aReady.COM til også at omfatte Arm-baserede moduler

congatec udvider aReady.COM til Arm-baserede moduler. Der kan således nu tilbydes Arm-moduler med applikationsklare hardware- og software-byggeblokke som operativsystem og IoT-konnektivitet med mere.

congatec is extending its portfolio of application-ready aReady. software building blocks to include Arm-based Computer-on-Modules.  The first product in this expansion is the successful SMARC module conga-SMX95, based on NXP Semiconductors’ i.MX 95 applications processors.

With application-ready hardware and software building blocks - including OS, system consolidation, and IoT connectivity - the new aReady.COM enables OEMs to bring value-generating applications to market faster.

By also addressing the high variability of Arm designs, congatec significantly reduces software bring-up complexity for OEMs. This will simplify the transition to Arm technology for many developers who previously avoided using Arm processors.

- Compared to x86, Arm designs often require greater initial integration effort, but offer higher efficiency, explains Martin Danzer, Director Product Management at congatec, and he continues:

- With aReady.COM for Arm based on the NXP i.MX 95 applications processor, we provide our customers with tangible value adds that accelerate time-to-dollar and maximize the business impact of their applications, enabling them to serve their addressable markets more effectively. Preconfigured, installed, and licensed core functions and software for operation, system consolidation, and IoT connectivity make the congatec module a highly efficient solution. Customers who previously avoided Arm designs due to their complexity can now leverage the aReady framework as a design foundation with optimally coordinated hardware and software.

- The combination of congatec’s pre-integrated software stacks with the i.MX 95 applications processor’s advanced compute, AI acceleration, and secure, real-time architecture enables OEMs to shorten development cycles for industrial applications. congatec’s support of the NXP i.MX 95 SoC helps customers simplify the path to high performance Arm based designs.adds Robert Thompson, Partner Marketing Director at NXP Semiconductors.

- aReady.COMs combine the advantages of standardized modules with pre-integrated software and technology stacks, creating real value-add in the embedded computing environment, says Andreas Bergbauer, Manager Solution Management at congatec, and he continues:

- By handling tasks that are routine for us as a module manufacturer but consistently challenging for OEMs, our aReady.COMs enable customers to focus on their core competencies and build best-in-class solutions.
