ARM Delivers Advanced Port of Symbian Operating System to Motorola For 3G Smartphone Solution

date: April 25, 2002

ARM, providers of 16/32-bit embedded RISC microprocessor solutions, announced it has delivered a port of the Symbian OS for ARM Powered 2.5 and 3G Smartphone devices to Motorola's Semiconductor Products Sector (SPS). The port, which has been created ahead of silicon implementation, makes use of the advanced system emulation methodologies from ARM and incorporates video-on-demand and video streaming capabilities for next-generation mobile phones.

ARM used advanced system emulation methodologies and the ARM Integrator development platform, part of the RealView suite of development tools, to create hardware incorporating an ARM920T macrocell and a mix of Motorola and ARM peripherals. The Symbian OS was then ported to this platform. This was done before Motorola's implementation of the ARM920T macrocell is available, to reducing time-to-market.

The ARM920T macrocell supports platform operating systems such as Symbian OS, Linux and Windows CE and is well suited for handheld, battery-powered wireless platforms such as PDAs, Smartphones and Internet appliances.
