MicroSys develops the embedded software for miriac\u00ae modules, boards and customer-specific systems, so that your team can concentrate on the application instead of platform bring-up. Because hardware and software come from one source, drivers, firmware and board support fit together from the first boot.<\/p>

Our services span the complete platform software, from Board Support Packages to security engineering. Security is built into the process rather than added at the end, and regular updates keep the software aligned with NXP and upstream releases. This supports your obligations under the Cyber Resilience Act throughout the product life cycle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A Board Support Package (BSP) is the foundation of every Linux-based product: bootloader, kernel, device tree and root filesystem, matched to the hardware. We adapt the BSP provided by NXP to our SBC carrier boards or to your custom carrier, including memory configuration, interfaces and peripheral setup, and build it on the Yocto Project. After the initial release, we keep the BSP current by following NXP releases and upstream kernel updates, including security fixes, so that your platform does not fall behind.<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> A documented, reproducible BSP with a tested boot image for your hardware, plus update releases over the agreed period.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> Our validated BSPs for miriac\u00ae SoMs and SBCs, which already include a bootloader and OS image for the evaluation carrier board.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

An SDK allows your application developers to build, run and debug software for the target without maintaining a full Yocto build environment. SDKs are provided on request, in the form that fits your workflow: a cross-toolchain with a sysroot generated from your image, an extensible SDK for iterative development, or a containerized build environment for CI pipelines. Optional additions are IDE integration, remote debugging setup and example applications for the board interfaces.<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> An installable SDK matched to your BSP version, with setup instructions, ready for your application team.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> The Yocto build of your BSP, from which the SDK is generated, so that libraries and headers always match the image on the device.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Custom hardware needs software that makes it usable. We develop and adapt Linux drivers for your peripherals, such as sensors, displays, communication controllers, network switches and FPGA interfaces, and configure the platform accordingly, including device tree, pin multiplexing and SerDes configuration. Drivers follow kernel conventions, so they remain maintainable and can be carried across kernel updates. Latency and throughput requirements are considered in the design.<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> Tested drivers and configuration integrated into the BSP, with documentation of interfaces and parameters.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> The mainline and NXP kernel drivers for the SoC, which we extend or adapt instead of rewriting wherever possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Many systems combine an application processor with additional microcontrollers, for example for real-time control, power and supply management, or sensor and actuator interfaces. We develop firmware for the real-time cores of the SoC and for additional or customer-specific microcontrollers, including hardware abstraction, bus and protocol handling, and the communication link to Linux.<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> Documented, versioned firmware with build environment, flashing procedure and a defined interface to the host software.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> The vendor SDKs of the target microcontroller or SoC real-time core, combined with proven communication mechanisms such as RPMsg\/OpenAMP.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Between drivers and application lies the software that makes a platform productive. We implement middleware such as interprocessor communication between SoC cores, hardware-accelerated AI inference using the SoC\u2019s NPU or external accelerators, device and fleet management with remote configuration and monitoring, and application services such as data logging, protocol gateways and diagnostics. The goal is a clean interface between platform and application, so your developers can concentrate on what differentiates your product.<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> Integrated, documented components with interface definitions and example code, ready for use by your application team.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> Our miricore\u00a9 IPC solution for interprocessor communication and selected open-source components chosen for long-term maintainability.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Connected products must be secure, and the Cyber Resilience Act makes this a regulatory requirement. Together with you, we perform a Threat and Risk Analysis (TARA) to identify the security measures your software needs. We then implement them: secure boot with a hardware root of trust, signed and rollback-protected over-the-air updates, Linux kernel hardening, and cryptography using the security hardware of the SoC. We also integrate security into your build process, with signing of artifacts, SBOM generation and automated vulnerability analysis (CVE checks).<\/p>

Result:<\/strong> Hardened software with documented security architecture, signing and update infrastructure, and SBOM and vulnerability reports for each release.<\/p>

Starting point:<\/strong> Our hardened BSP baseline, the Security Integration Guide for miriac\u00ae SoMs and the CRA Package with documentation, software and processes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
