Snijder Micro Systems just announced the public release of the second
generation of their Embedded Java(TM) Controller (EJC) product line,
codenamed EC200.

The EJC is a family of embedded controllers that implement a full-fledged
Java platform for network-enabled and standalone applications. The new
EC200 modules provide an Ethernet based connection to the Internet and
numerous interfacing possibilities including graphic LCD display, digital
I/O, analog inputs, high speed serial ports, dual I2C bus, Dallas 1-Wire, etc.

The software integrates Tao Group's intent(R) technology, featuring an
advanced Real Time Operating System and a Sun-certified Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) that combines unrivalled performance with minimal footprint,
due to the tight integration between kernel and JVM and to the advanced
translation technology which compiles all Java bytecode to native code
before execution. Java APIs are provided for efficient access to hardware
resources such as I/O ports, system memory and memory-mapped devices,
interrupts, and onboard peripherals. This allows developers to adopt an
all-in-one approach where applications, system components, and even device
drivers can be written entirely in Java, without compromising on
flexibility or performance.
