Lynx to support communication protocols for deterministic systems based on NXP processors
Summary
Systems featuring the combination of LS1028A SoC and LYNX MOSA.ic enable architects and developers to target application deployments anywhere in the network topology so that they are ready to satisfy the most stringent safety and security standards including DO-178C DAL A and DO-326A/356A SAL 3. • Provides time synchronization between virtual machines in a node and between physical nodes to perform precise task scheduling and accurate logging across a distributed system • Consolidates multiple workloads sharing a physical Ethernet port with predictable latency and jitter, guaranteed bandwidth and best-effort classes of service • Delivers transparent access to fully redundant network infrastructure for increased system robustness and reliability “As aircraft systems become more connected and complex, it is imperative that these networks continue to guarantee that a specific behaviour will happen during a pre-defined timeframe,” said Ian Ferguson, Vice President of Marketing for Lynx. “We are delighted to extend our long-standing relationship with NXP, to provide aerospace and defence system architects a proven solution to reduce development costs, time to market and program risk”. Additionally, it includes exceptional modularity and interoperability properties to allow a wide variety of software components of different programming languages, runtime environments, and abstraction layers to be reintegrated into a cohesive system. “The addition of LYNX MOSA.ic to this ecosystem brings a new flexibility to the most widely deployed TSN processors in the market, enabling the continued development of deterministic solutions required by modern aircraft.”
