along with build, compile, debug, and UI development tools.
The TI Stellaris MCU and ARM Cortex-M3 offer a direct path to the
strongest ecosystem of development tools and software in the industry.
Stellaris offers the industry's broadest implementation of Cortex-M3 and
the Thumb-2 instruction sets. With blazingly fast responsiveness,
Thumb-2 technology combines both 16-bit and 32-bit instructions to
deliver the best balance of code density and performance.
Embedded software development today
A new paradigm has emerged in the embedded industry. Semiconductor
companies have moved away from silicon only to system companies –
building application-ready, hardware/software-specific platforms. Software
developers are tasked to do more in a fraction of the time. Developers must
also design their systems to accommodate ever-increasing processing power
while staying within a given power budget and incorporate multicore
architectures. If today’s developers are to meet these challenges, they will
need to work within an all-inclusive, highly integrated, and independent
development platform. What’s needed is a new design methodology
based on a true build system with all the essential components
pre-integrated and in place.
Nucleus ReadyStart answers that need.
