Already able to run as an Eclipse plug-in within Atollic TrueSTUDIO, the Freescale Processor Expert software configuration tool lets you design custom peripheral drivers for Freescale’s Kinetis family of microcontrollers with ease. A TrueSTUDIO workspace can automatically detect, configure and update projects, should a Processor Expert configuration change.
This tighter level of integration removes the burden on developers of having to change or set key target and build parameters, source and #include folder paths. With such “zero-effort” integration, developers can get started with their Kinetis-based design much more quickly and work more efficiently.
Atollic TrueSTUDIO v5.2’s coverage encompasses the Freescale Kinetis KLx7Z, K11D, K21D and K24 devices; NXP LPC11E6 and LPC11U6 series; Renesas R-IN32M3 series; and the STM32F09 and STM3232F411 families from STMicroelectronics. It now provides support for almost 2,500 ARM-based devices and out-of-the-box support for over 160 evaluation / development boards.
Atollic TrueSTUDIO v5.2 also provides support for Freescale’s MQX RTOS debug solution. Available as a free Eclipse plug-in from Freescale’s website, embedded developers can benefit from kernel-aware debug support during a TrueSTUDIO debug session. Features also allow inspection of the state of MQX RTOS objects through a variety of debugger views such as by task, semaphore or message queue.
