TASKING is proud to announce the release of version v7.1r1 of its VX-toolset for Arm, now fully supported by NXP’s Real-Time Drivers (RTD) for the S32K388 microcontroller and extended to the S32N55 series, compatible with the iC7 family of debuggers.  This enhancement follows TASKING's recent recognition as an NXP Gold Partner, underscoring the commitment to optimize and accelerate software development for NXP® Semiconductors’ automotive microcontrollers and processors.

VX-toolset and NXP Real-Time Drivers Integration

The VX-toolset, in conjunction with NXP Real-Time Drivers, empowers software developers to optimize applications for the widely-used Arm architecture.  This architecture is integral to many safety-critical automotive systems, including airbags, body electronics, and sensor clusters.  Coupled with the TASKING family of iC7 hardware debuggers and the winIDEA integrated development environment (IDE), developers are provided with a comprehensive solution for both AUTOSAR and non-AUTOSAR applications in the automotive sector.

Support for S32N Family of Vehicle Super-Integration Processors

In addition to the S32K388 support, the TASKING iC7 hardware debuggers now facilitate the development of NXP’s S32N family of vehicle super-integration processors.  This includes support for virtual development via the Synopsys Virtual Development Kit (VDK) and traditional ECU hardware development for the S32N55 series.  Furthermore, enhancements have been made to integrate the TASKING Debugger into NXP’s S32 Design Studio.

“We are proud to be recognized as an NXP Gold Partner,” said Christoph Herzog, CTO at TASKING.  “With our VX-toolset for Arm, we reaffirm our commitment to equipping software developers with the necessary tools for creating safe and secure automotive software.”

“NXP is dedicated to fostering a vibrant, open ecosystem around our high-performance microcontrollers and processors for various automotive applications,” added David Vieira, Sr. Director of Zonal Solutions at NXP.  “Our partnership with TASKING exemplifies this ecosystem in action, providing customers with the flexibility to choose the optimal development platform for their solutions.”
