Further simplifying embedded software development, Texas Instruments has introduced significant upgrades to its Code Composer Studio integrated development environment (IDE) based on the Eclipse open source software framework. Featuring major user interface improvements that ease development and a five times smaller installation package that speeds setup, Code Composer Studio IDE v5 now runs on Windows and Linux operating environments and starts at a low cost.
The IDE provides a single user interface to take developers through each step of the application development flow. It includes a suite of tools that simplifies software design for embedded processing applications by accelerating software code development, analysis and debugging through a common development environment. Code Composer Studio IDE v5 is compatible across many devices in TI’s broad embedded processing portfolio, including single- and multicore digital signal processors (DSPs), microcontrollers, video processors and microprocessors.
Improvements in v5 include a simplified user interface that shows developers what and when calls are needed to ease and speeds development, as well as more succinct download and installation for only what is required for designs, eliminating unnecessary time spent on unused components and enabling developers to quickly add support for new devices.
The Eclipse open source framework enables developers to customise their environment through available third-party plug-ins to speed troubleshooting, analysis and profiling of embedded designs. Resource Explorer is an integrated browser that facilitates use of extensive example code from TI’s controlSUITE, StellarisWare, Grace 1.1 for MSP430 microcontrollers and other software platforms. Video tutorials explain how to get the most out of features, while straightforward migration from previous versions of Code Composer Studio IDE enables software reuse.
