Linux OS

Expertise in Open Source Software

Linux is a rising star among operating systems. Intrinsyc has been helping OEMs develop embedded and mobile devices based on Linux since 1999, and we can help you get your innovative device to market faster and with lower development costs.

New silicon board bring-up and Board Support Packages (BSP)

Leading silicon vendors rely on Intrinsyc’s deep embedded experience and in-depth understanding of ARM core technology to rapidly develop thoroughly tested Linux BSPs that enables OEMs worldwide to cost effectively develop their next generation of handheld devices. We build thoroughly tested Linux BSPs with optimized drivers, enabling manufacturers to focus on their go-to-market strategies.

Device driver development and optimization

Our engineering teams create Linux device drivers for new silicon and peripherals, and optimize them for performance and stability to be used in final production.

Application development and porting

From porting applications and Linux distributions (e.g., Qtopia, MontaVista), to developing rich multimedia Java applications, our engineers are able to deliver solutions to the most complex challenges created by converged wireless devices.

Power Management

Intrinsyc optimizes power consumption for increased energy efficiency and longer battery life on Linux handheld and embedded devices, without compromising the user experience. We are leaders in the development of power management software for battery-powered devices running Linux, covering both state-driven and DVFS (Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling) solutions.

Giving back to Linux

Intrinsyc believes in contributing back to the Linux world, and our engineering teams are actively involved in some of the widest spread commercial Linux distribution sites.
