Dear Readers,
VIEWPOINT
Exhibitions E are often used as an indicator
t for the economic health of an
industry i segment or the industry as a
whole. w The upcoming Embedded World
is i such a seismograph for the embedded
boards b and solution business and will
reflect r the activities of suppliers and
customers c for the year 2010. The
Embedded E World 2010 in Nuremberg,
Germany G is interesting and important
enough e for Intel as the launch site for
new n embedded products. They
launched l year after year new technologies
i at the h exhibition hib i i i for f the h embedded b
market and so managed to overcome
tough times through innovation. To maintain and further develop
this expertise in the embedded market will be a difficult challenge for
Europe as the outsourcing of production is expected by OEM customers
who hope thereby to lower pricing and raise margins. Looking at the pure
labour costs, this assessment is correct, but production of high tech electronics
is less and less labour intensive but more reliant on engineering,
quality and process technology. The tight integration of engineering, continuous
process improvement and fast adaptation of new technologies
is the key and is also the strength of many European companies from
Scandinavia to Turkey. Close relationships to numerous local embedded
OEM customers and a mine of application know-how will support the
innovation cycle for higher integration levels. OEM customers in turn
benefit from the large number of small to medium local suppliers in the
European countries. With the demand for complementary system solutions
such as matching boards, displays, memory and mass storage devices,
companies like MSC Vertriebs GmbH provide complete kits including
cables and accessories to cut the time to market and to further
shrink the innovation cycles for OEMs. Cutting down the time to market
is necessary to keep the business in the region and to develop a unique
value proposition in global business world.
As most of European suppliers are too small to generate significant impact
with their own innovations, many of them have started to cooperate
in industry consortia such as Qseven or PICMG. The interest in helping
each other with combined marketing, engineering specifications and
true second source capability has increased substantially over the last
couple of years. The boundary between the application and the computer
core is today the computer-on-module connector technology.
While Qseven is addressing fanless, mobile and compact systems, COM
Express offers superior performance in compute power and graphics interfaces.
The definition of the formats, interfaces and pin outs were developed
mainly with the experience of European board level manufacturers,
MSC being one of them. It would be helpful, if more OEM customers
found their way to join such industry consortia and to contribute
with application requirements and deployment know-how. This winwin
situation will strengthen our industry and help to grow local business
with short innovation cycles. So watch out at the exhibition for innovations,
for tight integration of system components, like boards and
displays which will shorten your design cycle. This will create leaders,
not followers and generate through innovation new applications and
markets for future growth to break out of the 2009 market decline.
Yours sincerely
Wolfgang Eisenbarth, Director of Marketing,

COVER STORY
Intelligence: WHERE You Need It,
WHEN You Need It
An interview with Steve Sciarappo, General Manager, Intel ® Embedded and Communications Group, Marketing and
Business Operations, on Intel’s latest embedded products and shortening time-to-market through solutions from the Intel ®
Embedded Alliance.
■ Smart people built the Internet. Now, intelligent
embedded devices are rapidly populating
it, joining the 1.7 billion people online. 1 Intel
and the Intel ® Embedded Alliance are helping
fuel this proliferation of connectivity. Em bedded
devices with built-in intelligence for everything
from energy efficiency to active management
and security are communicating and controlling
one another online, signaling a new era
in the young but quickly growing embedded Internet.
Roughly 5 billion devices are connected to the
Internet and 15 billion are expected online by
2015. 2 Home appliances, electric meters, wind
turbines, medical devices, retail signs, trains,
factory robotics, surveillance systems, grocery
carts, and cars are getting connected, driving an
unstoppable transformation all around us.
With its long history in the embedded industry
and its ecosystem, Intel is in the driver’s seat
and shifting into high gear with new and better
ways to add intelligence to devices. Intel and the
Intel Embedded Alliance provide the necessary
ingredients to instill embedded devices with all
kinds of intelligence, as well as to make you look
smarter by shortening your time-to-market.
This includes a full range of Intel ® embedded
processors and product technologies, plus a
complete choice of boards, software, programming/development
tools, and integration services.
We discussed how important 2010 will be to the
industry and what the Alliance will bring to the
table, with Steve Sciarappo, General Manager,
Intel ® Embedded and Communications Group,
Marketing and Business Operations.
Q: In recent years, Intel has really expanded its
embedded product line and focused on the
embedded space. Why?
A: The reality is that Intel ® architecture has fueled
innovation in the embedded space for
more than 30 years. The growth you are seeing
today reflects our drive to bring
intelligence and connectivity to every em-
bedded device–and we are well on our way to
meeting that goal. Intel processors are now
found in a lot of amazing places with products
that span nearly every segment of the
embedded industry, including medical, digital
signage, In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI), and
factory automation, among others.
The embedded Internet is the common theme
in these applications. As we seek to connect the
embedded world, it only makes sense to use an
architecture that is already popular for Internetconnected
home and business computing. By
deploying Intel silicon, the embedded industry
can maximize the enormous software investment
already made in Intel architecture. Not
only do Internet- connected embedded devices
run well on Intel architecture, but organizations
can also reuse and repurpose software across
multiple product lines and future generations of
products.
Q: If I were an embedded developer or original
equipment manufacturer (OEM) using a
different architecture, why should I consider
switching?
March 2010 6
A: I’d answer that by asking how hard you want
to work to keep up. As the world grows increasingly
connected, do you really want to spend resources
maintaining multiple code bases and
tools for multiple architectures? Or would you
rather take advantage of development efficiencies
that come from relying on a single architecture?
Intel architecture has an enormous base of existing
software, and the broadest set of software
development tools and open source software libraries
and utilities. This combination can help
organizations speed up software development
cycles and shorten time-to-market.
Another advantage is the sheer number of Intel
architecture-based, off-the-shelf solutions available
from Alliance members. No other embedded
architecture offers this breadth of products
in so many standard and custom form factors.
This means embedded developers can tap into
the full scalability of our product line, from the
power-efficient Intel ® Atom processors to the
all new Intel ® Core i3/i5/i7 processors and the
industry-leading performance/watt of the
multi-core Intel ® Xeon ® pro cessors. This range
of off-the-shelf solutions makes it easy to buy

COVER STORY
Steve Sciarappo: “Intel ® processors are now
found in a lot of amazing places with products
that span nearly every segment of the
embedded industry.”
the right board for each product. Our top-tobottom
range of pro cessors and chipsets has fueled
an explosion of offerings in small form factor
designs.
Q: Speaking of a full embedded product line,
Intel has announced a reassuring seven-year
lifecycle support for many new embedded
processors released in the first quarter of this
year. What are some other reasons to get excited
about these processors?
A: Intel began the year with a bang by introducing
10 new processors for the embedded market.
Using 32nm process technology, the new 2010
Intel ® Core i7 processors, and Intel ® Core i5
processors and Intel ® Core i3 paired with the
mobile Intel ® QM57 Express chipset, are the most
intelligent processors available from Intel. What
I mean by “intelligent” is these processors take
intelligent, adaptive performance to a new level,
especially when it comes to energy efficiency. Deploying
Intel ® Core processor-based systems, an
IT administrator at a bank could improve power
efficiency and management of system workloads,
for embedded applications like information
kiosks, digital signs, and ATMs.
Four of the Intel Core i7/i5 processors (Core i7-
610E, Core i7-620LE, Core i7-620UE and Core i5-
520E) were designed to include Error Correcting
Code (ECC), which corrects memory without the
need for system reset and is critical for designs that
require high data integrity standards. ECC in
smart retail registers, for instance, helps protect
against register system memory errors that could
result in numerical miscalculations.
Q: We hear there is excitement about the
desktop Intel ® Core processors finding their
way into embedded applications. Can you
explain?
A: You must mean the Intel ® Core i5-660 and
Core i3-540 processors paired with the Intel ®
Q57 Express and the Intel ® 3450 chipsets. This
two-chip solution integrates the graphics engine
in the processor delivering enhanced graphics
support for visually demanding applications
such as retail POS, digital signage, gaming,
medical imaging, and industrial automation
and control. This, combined with simultaneous
multithreading, performance-boosting technologies,
remote manageability, and integrated
memory controller, offers serious performance
improvements while saving valuable board
real estate.
Q: What do the new Intel ® Xeon ® and Intel ®
Atom processors mean to the embedded
market?
A: In February we launched the new Intel ®
Xeon ® processor C5500/C3500 series combined
with the Intel ® 3420 chipset. For the
first time, Intel engineers have integrated
PCI Express * (PCIe * ) and all input/output
(I/O) functions onto a dual-processing Intel
Xeon processor, which greatly facilitates
dense storage and communications solutions
such as IPTV, On-Demand Video
Services, and wireless radio network controllers.
The Intel Xeon processor
C3500/C5500 series maintains the outstanding
performance of our latest Intel architecture
(Nehalem), while lowering system
power consumption by at least 27 watts
when compared to the Intel ® Xeon ® 5500 series
processors. 3 For smaller form factor, low
power applications, we introduced the first
dual-core Intel ® Atom processor D510 for
embedded. With integrated graphics media
accelerator and memory controller, this
processor offers a smaller footprint, better
efficiency, and enhanced performance and
system responsiveness.
Q: Can you give us some examples of the
innovations you’re seeing from Intel ®
Embedded Alliance members?
A: That could fill a book, but here’s a look at
what some of our Premier Alliance members
are doing.
Kontron plans to deliver several new products
in 2010 based on the Intel Core i7 processor.
Recently they introduced what could be the

MicroTCA and AdvancedTCA ® integrated
platforms and it is ideal for use in telecommunications
applications and test systems for
wireline networks.
RadiSys developed a low-power single board
computer (SBC) based on an Intel Atom
processor for the in-home display sector. This
product can be used in equipment that tracks
energy usage and utility pricing. On the upper
end, they announced the Procelerant
CEQM57 COM Express module using the
new Intel Core i5 and i7 processors and mobile
Intel QM57 Express chipset. These modules
raise the bar for medical imaging, communications,
military-aerospace, and test and
measurement applications that require high levels
of performance.
Emerson Network Power released four new
products featuring the embedded Intel Core i7
and Core i5 processor and the mobile Intel
QM57 Express chipset. Form factors include
MicroATX * , COM Express, 6U VME and 3U
CompactPCI, addressing a wide range of
industrial, medical and military/aerospace
applications, and digital signage and retail and
interactive kiosks. These new platforms feature
high quality digital graphics, advanced management
capabilities and the integrated Intel ®
Trusted Platform Module enhances data
security and encryption.
Advantech announced an All-in-One Digital
Signage Station based on our new Intel Core i7
processor. The station is a ready-to-go, touchscreen,
public signage kiosk that can be used to
advertise everything from the latest film, to the
latest fashions. They also developed a 1U rackmount

You may need more
than just the hardware...
Developing embedded applications is a
challenge, quality and longevity are important
but there is much more to consider when
choosing a CPU board than just the spec: For
instance, are device drivers available? Can
you access the CPU temperature settings?
Throughout every phase of design, Advantech
can provide not only the embedded
platform, but can also work with your
requirements to hasten your project to a
complete solution.

PRODUCT NEWS
■ BittWare: development environment
for AMC/MicroTCA systems
BittWare releases the MicroTCA Rapid Development
Platform designed through a partnership
with MicroBlade, N.A.T, and Concurrent
Technologies. The MicroTCA Rapid Development
Platform combines MicroTCA with the processing
power of up to six Altera Stratix FPGAs in
an integrated solution using a MicroBlade MicroBox
1U chassis, a N.A.T. MicroTCA carrier hub
module, and an optional Concurrent Technologies
processor AMC module.
■ AdaCore launches source code
analysis tool
AdaCore announces the release of CodePeer, a
source code analysis tool that detects run-time
and logic errors in Ada programs. CodePeer
identifies constructs that are likely to lead to
run-time errors such as buffer overflows, and it
flags legal but suspect code typical of logic errors.
Going well beyond the capabilities of typical
static analysis tools, CodePeer also produces
a detailed analysis of each subprogram, including
pre- and postconditions. Such an
analysis makes it easier to find potential bugs
and vulnerabilities early: if the implicit specification
deduced by CodePeer does not match
the component’s requirements, a reviewer is
alerted immediately to a likely logic error.
■ GoAhead Software acquires S3’s
