Following the release of the latest addition to the Freescale Kinetis MCU portfolio, IAR Systems has announced that its IAR Embedded Workbench has again been selected as a featured IDE for Kinetis MCUs. IAR Systems and Freescale share an effective history, providing designers with the tools to simplify development and to harness the advantages of the Kinetis MCU portfolio.

“The Kinetis software development kit (SDK) is an extensive suite of robust peripheral drivers, stacks and middleware designed to accelerate application development on any Kinetis MCU. The addition of Processor Expert technology for software and board support configuration provides unmatched ease of use and flexibility”, says JC Bodet, Director of Freescale’s Microcontroller Software and Services. “We are very excited about IAR Systems continuing their industry-leading Kinetis MCU support as we launch the Kinetis SDK.”

Since the introduction of Kinetis microcontrollers, IAR Systems has delivered the broadest coverage of Freescale’s portfolio of solutions based on ARM Cortex® cores including full integration with Processor Expert software and MQX™ kernel awareness debugging. IAR Embedded Workbench is now equipped with a complete migration manual to facilitate a smooth transition for any customers wishing to migrate from CodeWarrior Developer Studio for microcontrollers to IAR Embedded Workbench. The migration support is built directly into IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM, allowing Kinetis SDK users to easily take advantage of IAR Systems’ powerful, reliable IDE.

“IAR Systems leads the way in tool reliability, optimization, and ease of use,” says Stefan Skarin, CEO of IAR Systems. “Our established relationship with Freescale and our product integration continue to provide embedded designers with efficient tools for peak results with the powerful Kinetis MCUs.” IAR Systems is offering competitive upgrade pricing to qualified CodeWarrior Developer Studio for microcontrollers licensees.
