National Instruments Labview Targets Industry-Leading ARM Microcontrollers April 15, 2008 National Instruments LabVIEW Targets Industry-Leading ARM Microcontrollers New Module Combines Graphical System Design Platform with World’s Most Popular Microcontrollers to Simplify Embedded System Development NEWS RELEASE – April 15, 2008 – National Instruments and ARM today announced the NI LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers, an extension of the LabVIEW graphical system design platform that directly targets the ARM 7™, ARM 9™ and Cortex™-M3 microcontroller families. The module is the first product in an ongoing collaboration between the companies that combines the ease of use of LabVIEW with the performance of ARM microcontrollers. ARM is the industry’s leading provider of 32-bit embedded reduced instruction set computing (RISC) processors, with more than 75 percent of the market share and more than 10 billion ARM core-based devices shipped to date. Using the new module, engineers and scientists can create embedded applications in LabVIEW and deploy them to more than 260 microcontrollers created from microprocessor IP licensed by ARM and manufactured by the world’s leading semiconductor companies including Analog Devices, Atmel, Luminary Micro, NXP, Freescale Semiconductor, Intel and Texas Instruments. “National Instruments is excited to extend the power and ease of use of the LabVIEW graphical system design platform to even more embedded designers who are developing applications for ARM microcontrollers,” said Dr. James Truchard, National Instruments president, CEO and co-founder. “With the addition of the LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers, we are expanding our embedded design platform offerings to give engineers and scientists a variety of out-of-the-box solutions for designing, prototyping and deploying their embedded applications quickly.” Microcontrollers are integrated microprocessors that include the memory, peripherals and interfaces, as well as the CPU, on a single chip, making them a cost-effective solution for embedded systems and ideal for control and interrupt-driven applications that require a real-time response to stimulus. ARM microcontrollers are deployed in a wide range of applications, from popular consumer goods such as the Garmin Nuvi portable navigation device to industrial and medical applications such as the BIAC portable muscle stimulator. The LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers features LabVIEW drivers that make it possible for domain experts to graphically program all components of the ARM microcontroller including the analog and digital I/O. The module also features desktop simulation capabilities so that users can run the programs they develop for an ARM microcontroller on a desktop PC without any additional hardware. Engineers and scientists can use the desktop simulation with NI Multisim, the interactive SPICE simulation and circuit analysis software, to simulate the entire signal design chain for a truly comprehensive embedded system design simulation environment. “The intuitive, graphical design capabilities of LabVIEW make it an ideal platform for developers with limited C/C++ programming experience who need to develop applications around ARM processor-based microcontrollers,” said Reinhard Keil, director of MCU Tools at ARM. “Additionally, for the more experienced developer, it provides a faster and more streamlined approach to programming.” Other new features of the LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers include a project wizard that automates configuration and overall setup to help users establish projects quickly as well as an interrupt manager that simplifies interrupt-driven programming by setting up LabVIEW code to run when specific hardware interrupts occur. In addition to the software, National Instruments offers a development kit that includes a choice of an MCB2370 evaluation board with an ARM 7 family-based NXP processor or a Stellaris LM3S8962 with a Cortex-M3 processor-based Luminary Micro processor. For more information about the LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers, including webcasts, data sheets and an evaluation kit, readers can visit www.ni.com/arm. About National Instruments National Instruments (www.ni.com) is transforming the way engineers and scientists design, prototype and deploy systems for measurement, automation and embedded applications. NI empowers customers with off-the-shelf software such as NI LabVIEW and modular cost-effective hardware, and sells to a broad base of more than 25,000 different companies worldwide, with no one customer representing more than 3 percent of revenue and no one industry representing more than 10 percent of revenue.

  • City of Austin, TX
    Director of Code Compliance City of Austin, TX The City of Austin is located in central Texas Hill Country and has a population of more than 770,000 residents. It was chartered in 1839 as the capital of the Republic of Texas, and remained the state capital when Texas was admitted to the Union in 1846. It is the 16th largest city in the United States, and is the cultural and economic center of the Austin-Round Rock Metropolitan Area with a population of more than 1.5 million. In 2006, Austin was selected as the #2 Best Big City in “Best Places to Live” by Money Magazine and the “Greenest City in America” by MSN. Popular Science also ranks Austin high on their list of “The Greenest Cities” in the US. Residents of Austin are typically known as “Austinites” and their official slogan is “The Live Music Capital of the World”. Recently however, Austinites have adopted the unofficial slogan of “Keep Austin Weird”. This refers to the eclectic and progressive lifestyle of many Austin residents. The city was founded as the Village of Waterloo in 1830, and was later renamed Austin in honor of Stephen F. Austin who is known as the Father of Texas. The Texas State Capitol was completed in 1888 and was advertised as the 7th largest building in the world at that time. Today, the building remains a significant part of the Austin skyline and is, in fact, taller than the US Capitol. Since its incorporation as a city, Austin has doubled in size every 20 years.
