Surveillance cameras are nowadays widely used. With modern 32-bit RISC/DSP architectures, such digital network cameras can almost be built with only one chip. Consumer webcams are available for little cost in almost any computer shop. But most of these are simple passive cameras that just do digital image-capture and deliver these images to a PC, typically by means of a USB cable connection ...

One processor for all real-time standards - hyNet processor for real-time Ethernet
All major industrial automation companies have chosen Ethernet to be the "field bus" of the future. A new processor now covers all real-time standards in one.

Fast alle Echtzeit-Ethernet-Standards benötigen - zumindest für bestimmte Betriebsmodi - keine Spezial-ASICs. Zum Teil liegen sie sogar als reine Software-Spezifikation vor. Dennoch:Wenn das „Orchester" aus Funktionen, Schnittstellen und Protokollen nach dem richtigen „Taktstock" spielt - sprich durch geeignete Hardware unterstützt wird - lässt sich meist noch mehr Leistung aus dem System herausholen.

Hyperstone, iAd, and Softing today announced the Real-Time Ethernet Alliance. Based on Hyperstone's hyNet family of network processors, partners will combine their products and expertise, supporting all major Real-Time Ethernet protocols in a flexible and comprehensive technology platform. The technology roadmap includes support of the ETHERNET Powerlink, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and EtherCAT real-time protocols.Hyperstone will provide processor hardware expertise through the hyNet family of processors, which are specifically designed to support several RTE standards.

ModelSim with SystemVerilog DPI Speeds Simulation
and Debug of C Models
Hyperstone accelerates its RTL-simulation by raising the level of abstraction from netlists to C models. This was made possible through the SystemVerilog DPI in ModelSim®. ModelSim's interactive C-debugger also helped reduce the time to verification closure.

Kompatibilität, die nicht mehr kostet - Mit Ethernet und TCP/IP homogen vernetzen
Wegen der hohen Kosten hapert es in der Gebäudeautomation bislang oft mit dem Einsatz von Ethernet und TCP/IP. Das kann sich jetzt ändern. Hyperstone und Smart Network Devices ermöglichen mit dem hyNet32XS-Controller und dem Betriebssystem HyNetOS die Materialkosten für einen Raumknoten unter 25 Euro zu drücken. In Kombination mit ZigBee udn Bluetooth lassen sich auch die Nachrüstkosten bei Gebäudeinstallationen reduzieren.

Ethernet in Echtzeit
Der 32-bit-RISC/DSP-Controller hyNet32XS mit zwei Ethernet MACs und einem Ethernet-PHY ist ein wahrer Vernetzungskünstler. Harte Echtzeit-Anforderungen bestimmen heute die Ethernet-Anwendungen vor allem in der Industrieautomation. Um Echtzeit-Anforderungen zu einem Bruchteil der Kosten vergleichbarer bisheriger Systeme zu erfüllen, integriert der neu entwickelte Vernetzungs-Baustein hyNet32XS von Hyperstone als erster Chip auf seinen zwei On-Chip-Ethernet-Schnittstellen einen Uhrensynchronisationseinheit.

Gute Ideen, breites Know-how und perfekt abgestimmte Kooperationen: drei Firmen und ihr innovativer Kommunikations-Controller
Das Schlagwort unserer Tage heißt „Vernetzung" und die zugehörige Technologie ist Ethernet. Was sich in der Büro-Infrastruktur seit Jahren bewährt hat, hält nun Einzug in die Industrieautomation, in Kraftfahrzeuge, in Consumer-Produkte und in Häuser und Wohnungen. Noch kann die Verfügbarkeit von preiswerten und leistungsstarken Kommunikations-Chips das Wachstum dieser Entwicklung aktiv beeinflussen - bald wird jedoch eine enorme Nachfrage die Produktion der Netzwerk-Bausteine bestimmen.Genau der richtige Zeitpunkt also, an dem die drei Partner Hyperstone, iAd und SND ihren gemeinschaftlich realisierten, außergewöhnlichen Kommunikations-Controller und das dazu passende, abgestimmte Support- und Design-in-Konzept am Markt präsentieren.
