National Instruments extended the NI LabVIEW 8.5 graphical system design platform to new embedded targets with the release of the NI LabVIEW Embedded Module for ADI Blackfin Processors 2.5 and the LabVIEW Microprocessor SDK (Software Development Kit) 2.5.
Both help expand the available deployment options for engineers and scientists by adding support for new, high-performance convergent multimedia Blackfin processors, as well as introducing support for the Freescale ColdFire processor. The software packages also deliver 18% increased efficiency in code generation, says the company.
The LabVIEW Embedded Module for Blackfin Processors seamlessly integrates LabVIEW 8.5 and ADI VisualDSP++ 5.0 to deliver an out-of-the-box embedded programming experience.
