Choose IAR tools for ADI's ADSP-CM40x mixed-signal control processors

The series is targeted for industrial motor control and photo voltaic inverter applications, as well as general purpose implementations where core performance and ADC accuracy are key requirements.

IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM generates the fastest performing code in the industry while providing extensive debugging possibilities, creating the perfect environment to fully gain from the efficiency and performance delivered by the ADSP-CM40x processors. The C-SPY Debugger included with IAR Embedded Workbench also incorporates IAR Systems’ Power Debugging technology that provides developers with information about how the software implementation in an embedded system affects system level power consumption. Because software controls the hardware, including peripheral units, it impacts the power consumption. By coupling source code to consumed power, testing and tuning for power optimization is enabled. IAR Systems also supplies completely integrated in-circuit debugging and trace probes.

Tim Resker, Processor Marketing Manager at Analog Devices, comments: “To go with IAR Systems as the tools partner for our new series was an easy choice. Our customers working with precision control applications have high demands and of course we want to enable them to use the best possible development tools. By using IAR Embedded Workbench with its powerful optimizations and comprehensive debugging features, they can be sure to maximize their return on invest for our high performance ADSP-CM40x mixed-signal control processors.”
