Cyan Technology, the UK fabless semiconductor company with its own ultra low power RISC microcontroller, is now offering free to designers, CyanIDE, its suite of software development tools.
CyanIDE is an Integrated Development Environment that supports the company's range of current and future microcontrollers, allowing engineers to develop, configure, build, and test microcontroller applications from a single PC-based environment. It is also possible to debug code within the same non-intrusive realtime debug environment. An integrated HTML viewer provides a uniform environment for editing C-source code and viewing help files on device data, compiler and tools.
Included is the 'Configuration Tool' that assigns device pin-out selection for the most efficient use of on-chip peripherals. Said to be simple to use, the tool intelligently generates the required code to set up peripherals and communications options. The choices are made by simple point-and-click actions and then the code is generated automatically. A graphical representation of the device allows engineers to see the configuration of the internal peripherals as they are used. The system provides help with each peripheral as it is configured.
The company supplies the CyanIDE Tool kit with a full ANSI C Compiler. A CyanIDE demonstration and the full CyanIDE toolset can be downloaded free of charge from www.cyantechnology.com
Cyan's initial product is the ultra low powered eCOG1 16 bit microcontroller, which offers a combination of ultra low power operation together with configurable peripherals, built in memory management and interfacing as well as on-board ICE and debug. This microcontroller is particularly suited for new generation products involving communications over Ethernet, Bluetooth or WiFi wireless interfaces. Applications are potentially very broad but Cyan says the device specifically brings benefit to areas such as remote data telemetry systems, handheld instrumentation, PDAs, EPOS and data recorders as well as integrated communications in cameras, security systems and other intelligent sensors or peripherals.
