Prevas is selected as a Proven partner to Freescale in supporting the Nordic and
European area with embedded systems based on the i.MX family of advanced single
and multicore processors chips. The i.MX platform is optimized for multimedia,
display, and industrial applications and brings interactivity to a whole new
world of products. The partnership strengthens Prevas as a Nordic leader in
embedded systems.
The universal platform for multimedia and display applications, Freescale i.MX
processors, delivers an optimal balance of power, performance, and integration
to enable next-generation smart devices. i.MX solutions are powering
applications across a rapidly growing number of different markets, such as
automotive, industrial, and consumer markets.
Prevas is already today working with a broad range of the Freescale i.MX series.
For example, Prevas has, with this technology, helped Miris Holding develop an
instrument for analysis of liquids, such as cow, buffalo, and breast milk. The
solution won the Swedish Embedded Award 2012.
“Prevas has been selected as a Freescale partner because of their broad
experience in industrial electronics and their focus on quality and competence
in software and hardware design. In addition, Prevas’ proven OE-lite Linux
technology is ideal for a broad range of i.MX processors,” said Rajeev Kumar,
i.MX product manager with Freescale.
“Prevas has developed and delivered a vast amount of OE-lite Linux platforms on
customer specific hardware. Regardless of platform choices, the applications
design today must consider low power consumption in combination with reduced
design complexity, cost, and time to market. The partnership with the U.S. based
chip manufacturer Freescale Semiconductor opens up a new opportunity for Prevas
to reach out to new customers and markets,” says Rune Domsten.
Android systems for graphical user interfaces are one of the hot topics in the
industry. Prevas has designed the complete platform for a professional bakery
oven1) including hardware, software integration and user app’s.
“All platform projects consist of extensive communication and co-operation
between the customer project team and our development team, as a software
platform is a living instantiation of constantly changing market requirements.
To provide the best and most innovative and competitive platforms to our
customers, Prevas is dependent on close collaboration with the semiconductor
market leaders. We are, therefore, very excited about the partnership with
Freescale,” says Jonas Mann Business Area manager at Prevas.
