Freescale Semiconductor is easing embedded Ethernet design with a new platform solution that combines a 32-bit ColdFire V1 microcontroller (MCU) with a complimentary operating system and application software solution and modular development hardware. This combined hardware/software offering is designed to help embedded designers save development time and reduce cost.
The connectivity solution features the MCF51CN ColdFire V1 MCU, complimentary Freescale MQX realtime operating system (RTOS) and TCP/IP software stacks, and the Tower System, a cost-effective, open-source demonstration and evaluation platform with a library of interchangeable board modules. The combined solution gives developers a customisable, expandable design environment that can expedite development time through rapid prototyping and tool re-use.
The first Freescale MCU supported by the Tower System is the MCF51CN, which integrates the ColdFire V1 core with on-chip Ethernet connectivity and a flexible external bus. The MCU is targeted at developers who need to upgrade serial communications to Ethernet, as well as for new applications requiring 10/100 Mbps connectivity. Target embedded Ethernet applications include security and building control systems (including HVAC systems); industrial operator interfaces and control systems; consumer and industrial appliances (white goods); medical monitoring systems and instrumentation; and point-of-sale (POS) and courier systems.
