It incorporates an LCD to display additional information on the programming process. The Flasher Portable PLUS can be loaded with multiple programming images and configurations.

For high volume production it is common to employ a contract manufacturer (CM). This setup introduces a new threat for the intellectual property (IP) of the original owner. To limit the risk of IP theft and overproduction, SEGGER announces the new production programming system Flasher SECURE. CMs have access to customer IP and large quantities of the components they are contracted to produce.

SEGGER announces a Dropbox client as part of their IoT offerings. IoT devices have different communication needs. The new Dropbox client is ideal for projects which need to manage various amounts of data. This is accomplished by loading or storing files, even large data files, in a secure and reliable way using the public Dropbox API. Typical use cases include; firmware updates, log files, and for that matter, any information shared bet...

Embedded devices joining the IoT exchange data with other devices using a network. SEGGER’s new MQTT client helps these devices to communicate with each other, using wired or wireless connections, anywhere in the world at any time. SEGGER’s MQTT client is a lightweight communication protocol perfectly suited for constrained environments such as IoT and Machine to Machine (M2M) contexts.

  SEGGER has launched an extensive training program for 2017. Through this, the company’s team of Embedded Experts will be able to give guidance to software developers to help them get the most out of ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. All participants will be given extensive opportunities to work hands-on with the evaluation boards provided.

SEGGER has announced the availability of hardware acceleration support for its emCrypt offering. emCrypt is a comprehensive library of cryptographic algorithms which are at the heart of all cryptographic software products from SEGGER, such as emSSH and emSSL, as well as security focused products like emSecure. This pure software solution is the fastest available, achieving a performance of 2.17MBytes/s AES-128 encryption on a 168MHz NXP...

SEGGER introduces Wi-Fi modules (2.4GHz and 5GHz supported) for its emPower Cortex-M Evaluation Platform. Getting a project with Wi-Fi off the ground has never been easier. Evaluation software is included enabling a Web Server via Wi-Fi in mere minutes. The available modules in combination with the emPower platform permit comparison of different Wi-Fi modules, as well as evaluation of the SEGGER embOS/IP stack.

SEGGER announces in-circuit-programming support for the XMC1000 microcontroller family of Infineon Technologies AG. Production of XMC1000 microcontrollers now benefits from the fast flash programming algorithms developed by SEGGER. Small series and mass production environments benefit from the reliability and performance of SEGGER’s in-circuit-programming solution.

SEGGER presents an embOS port for the Renesas Electronics’ automotive RH850 MCU Family. The efficiency of embOS complements the high-performance and very low power consumption characteristics that are inherent within RH850 MCUs. The embOS port comes with board support packages for all popular Renesas RH850 MCUs plus their related evaluation boards.

In order to make it easy to get true instruction trace up and running, SEGGER has just introduced the new Cortex-M Trace reference board. This compact board now ships with every J-Trace PRO for Cortex-M. It can also be purchased apart from the J-Trace PRO unit, so every customer can take advantage of the new reference board. By referring to the detailed tutorial on the SEGGER web site, engineers can experience streaming trace, real-time code...

  Enhancements have been made to the J-Trace PRO and Ozone debugger products by SEGGER. The new functionality incorporated will enable continuous trace, endless streaming and live analysis of application trace data for ARM Cortex-M projects.

Version 3.10 of SEGGER's cross platform development software 'Embedded Studio' has been released. The new version comes with multiple improvements, most notably even higher speed and the ability to build programs using compilers other than the included GCC and Clang/LLVM. These other compilers can be integrated seamlessly into Embedded Studio and the resulting programs can be debugged using the built-in debugger.

J-Link support for the BBC micro:bit has been introduced by Segger. It provides students with a path to using a production grade IDE for their next micro:bit project. SEGGER offers the capability to upgrade the firmware on the BBC micro:bit DAPLink to a J-Link OB (On Board). This firmware makes the on-board debug solution on the BBC micro:bit compatible to J-Link, allowing users to take advantage of all J-Link features.

Renesas Electronics Europe and SEGGER have announced their collaboration to facilitate expansion of the ecosystem of Renesas’ RX family of 32-bit MCUs through adoption of SEGGER’s newly-released SystemView software. The SystemView software will now support streaming over J-Link, as well as real-time analysis and visualisation, in relation to any Renesas RX-based embedded design.

  The emSSH software library has been announced by SEGGER. This highly advanced package is intended for creating secure connections between a client and a server, typically over a TCP/IP connection.

  J-Link support for Zilog’s ZNEO32! Cortex-M3 based family of MCUs has been introduced by SEGGER. This includes support for debug, as well as Flash-based programming. Production line programming is also available via the SEGGER Flasher family.

  A new version of the J-Link firmware for NXP's evaluation boards with OpenSDA debug and programming interface from SEGGER. OpenSDA is used on the popular Tower and Freedom evaluation boards equipped with Kinetis microcontroller devices.

SEGGER introduces the add-on CDC-ECM for its emUSB-Device stack to provide Ethernet connections via USB. Fully compliant with the CDC-ECM class, the new emUSB-Device CDC-ECM is a comprehensive out-of-the-box solution for connecting with Mac and Linux platforms (complementing SEGGER’s existing emUSB-Device RNDIS solution for Windows hosts).

To assist engineers in adding higher degrees of security to their designs, SEGGER has introduced the embOS-MPU - a new variant of the company’s zero interrupt latency real time operating system (RTOS) that is optimised for minimal memory utilisation.
