Altium has announced a free embedded software development toolset for Infineon’s TriCore/AURIX product line as part of their strategic partnership. This toolset was developed as part of a major update to the TASKING compiler for TriCore/AURIX, which adds a number of latest features and enhancements for advanced automotive application development. The Lite Edition of the TASKING VX-toolset for TriCore includes a one year license and can be requested now on the Infineon website or the TASKING website.

Engineers can use this toolset to develop automotive applications that require high standards of safety, reliability and performance for the AURIX variants within the TriCore MPU family.

By providing a free version of their industry-leading toolset, TASKING has allowed embedded software developers to conveniently explore the benefits of TASKING compiler technology with access to the major features included in the full toolset. This toolset features the AURIX configuration tools, which includes Integrated Pin Mapper. This pin mapper solution saves the developer from the tedious task of managing pin assignments in spreadsheets by making it easy to assign the peripheral module signals to physical pins on the chip. 

It also includes RTOS for TriCore as well as the Software Platform Builder. The TASKING RTOS provides a real-time, multitasking kernel designed specifically for time-critical embedded applications that require a high degree of modularity and configuration. The Software Platform Builder provides the flexibility needed to build advanced microcontroller applications through the use of a unified graphics editor and code generator which can quickly configure low-level drives, C files, header files and the RTOS.
