SYSGO supports Eltec's BAB-Q2 QorlQ Evaluation Board with its certified RTOS PikeOS

Paris, France / Klein-Winternheim, Germany, Feb 18, 2014

SYSGO, a leading supplier of embedded software solutions for the world’s most demanding safety and security applications, is announcing the support of the BAB-Q2 QorlQ evaluation board from ELTEC Elektronik AG by its certified real-time operating system PikeOS.

The ELTEC QorlQ evaluation board BAB-Q2 provides real time performance and operates with up to 1.2 GHz. It implements a Freescale OorIQ-family-based SoC on a PCI Express slot card. The QorIQ-CPU cores used in this solution offer a comprehensive infrastructure paired with minimal power dissipation.

In addition the BAB-Q2 offers Gigabit Ethernet and USBs 2.0 respectively, one SD interface for booting and two PCI Express x1 slots for the connection of peripheral applications. The board itself comes with a PCI-Express interface. As a result, it can be directly plugged into a PC motherboard, while it can also be operated as a stand-alone device. In addition to PikeOS, SYSGO provides support by ELinOS, its embedded Linux development environment for industrial applications, for the BAB-Q2.

„This announcement is a further result of the strategic alliance we signed with SYSGO end of 2012. Both companies have been collaborating to bring embedded virtualization technology PikeOS to the BAB-Q2 platform”, noted Peter Albert, ELTEC’s Chairman of the Board. „Based on the expanded support of our state-of-the-art and reliable hardware solutions by certified real-time software our customers benefit from of an efficient, riskless development of safe and secure embedded systems. “

ELTEC Elektronik AG, with headquarters in Mainz, Germany, offers targeted, application-oriented system solutions based on powerful hardware and software products for a vast spectrum of industrial applications. The focus is on automation, control and process technology. The comprehensive product portfolio consists of CPU/SoC boards, frame grabbers, I/O products, imaging solutions as well as software and complete system solutions.

“We are very happy to have the Eltec's BAB-Q2 QorlQ evaluation board supporting our certified RTOS PikeOS", said Jacques Brygier, VP Marketing at SYSGO. "Our growth strategy requires a well-defined selection of partners and Eltec is definitely one of them."
