IAR Systems provides powerful tools for Cypress’ PSoC 4 L-series

The PSoC 4 L series is an integrated single-chip solution with a 32-bit ARM-Cortex-M0 core. The series is ideal for a broad range of industrial and consumer applications, leveraging the flexibility of the PSoC architecture to address multiple product variations and Cypress’ leading CapSense capacitive touch-sensing technology to implement reliable and elegant user interfaces.

“We are very excited that we together with IAR Systems are able to provide our customers with wide support for our PSoC4 platform in the powerful toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench,” says John Weil, Vice President of MCU marketing, Cypress. “Our PSoC 4 portfolio has enabled customers to easily migrate from proprietary 8- and 16-bit MCUs to the industry’s most flexible ARM Cortex-M0 one-chip solution. Tools from IAR Systems not only enable our customers to generate the fastest, most compact code, it also makes migration easy thanks to the wide support for 8-, 16-, and 32-bit architectures in one development environment.”

IAR Embedded Workbench is a powerful development toolchain that incorporates a compiler, an assembler, a linker and a debugger into one completely integrated environment. It provides extensive debugging and profiling possibilities such as complex code and data breakpoints, runtime stack analysis, call stack visualisation, code coverage analysis and integrated monitoring of power consumption. For complete code control, IAR Systems also offers integrated add-on tools for static analysis and runtime analysis. Thanks to the wide device support provided by the tools, developers can improve efficiency and shorten the time to market, reuse code across projects and reduce the costs for training, maintenance and managing of licenses.
