IAR Systems has partnered with the semiconductor IP provider CAST to offer new possibilities for developers working with 8051-based applications. With the recently introduced version 9.10 of the high-performance development toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051, complete tool support for CAST’s 8051 microcontrollers is available.

CAST helped pioneer 8051 intellectual property in 1999, and continues as an 8051 IP leader with hundreds of customers successfully shipping products. Partnering with 8051 design experts Silesia Devices, CAST’s offerings include world-class 8051 MCUs that are among the fastest and the smallest such IP cores available.

The fast, small, and power-efficient modern 8051s are finding new life paired with sensors or communications functions in Internet of Things (IoT), mobile, and wearable electronic applications. IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051 is a complete set of development tools for microcontrollers based on the 8051 core.

For simplified development workflows, the tools feature integrations for a range of hardware debug systems and device configuration tools. IAR Systems has in cooperation with CAST developed a plugin for the C-SPY Debugger in IAR Embedded Workbench with support for CAST’s native on-chip debug package
