USB On-The-Go comes to ARM SoCs
TransDimension has achieved the Amba Compliance Testbench (ACT) certification for its full-speed USB On-The-Go (OTG) intellectual property (IP) core.
The Java Card OS can be developed as an embedded security device for server, multimedia mobile phones, and the sample product will be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Historically, the Java Card OS could not run multiple applications in parallel, but real-time business will be mainstream in the future and it will be essential that Java Card technology enables parallel processing of numerous applications.
DNP's Java Card OS uses ARM technology to address this growing need.
"The ARM SC200 processor was critical to delivering a high-performance Java CardOS to the market," said Ichiro Doi, senior general manager of DNP's smart card division.
"Because the SC200 processor has been optimized for Java Card technology, processing is fast and power consumption is minimal.
In addition, ARM's extensive development resources have enabled us to reduce development time.
These benefits, combined with our embedding of the multi-task kernel, have enabled us to expand the Java Card OS technology's functionality and provide a solution to customers that can process security services in real-time." "The ARM SecurCore family is gaining market share as the secure industry moves to 32-bit processing," said Hiroyuki Uchimura, managing director, ARM K.K.
"ARM will continue to benefit from this trend by offering secure, high performance, low power consumption solutions for the Java Card platform using ARM Jazelle technology.".
