ARM announces support for Silicon Labs ARM Cortex-M3 devices in the MDK-ARM Development Kit
2/28/2012 -
ARM today announced that the Keil™MDK-ARM™ development kit will support the ARM® Cortex™-M3 based Silicon Labs Precision32™ family from launch.
The Precision32 family has been announced at Embedded World 2012 in Nuremberg, Germany, targeting low power industrial and medical applications that can benefit from high-quality analogue peripherals. It is the natural upgrade path for existing customers of Silicon Labs' proven 8-bit microcontrollers.
Keil has a long history of supporting the Silicon Labs 8051-based mixed signal MCUs. The Keil PK51™ Development System has been the tool of choice for many customers and is considered the de-facto standard for this architecture. With the MDK-ARM development kit, programmers can continue to work in the familiar µVision™ IDE as they start developing for the ARM Cortex-M family of processors using the Precision32 family.
The combination of the µVision IDE, the state of the art ARM C/C++ Compiler, advanced debug and trace features, RTX RTOS and the highly optimized Middleware libraries in the MDK-Professional development kit enables high productivity and a shorter time to market.
Support for the Precision32 family is included in the new release of the ARM KEIL MDK-ARM development kit.
