IDE puts C programmers in control of pins
XMOS Semiconductors
IDE
XMOS has announced the latest version of its integrated development environment (IDE), allowing programmers to directly program IO and watch the source code control the pins.
James Foster, president and chief executive officer, XMOS, said: 'XMOS event-driven processors are so predictable that they enable C programmers to implement hardware interfaces.
'The integrated waveform viewer lets the programmer see changes at a pin and link them to the C code.
'It is easy to program and then simulate IO hardware, control software and DSP functions from the same eclipse C tools used to code programs.' A major feature of the latest XMOS IDE is a waveform viewer, which provides hardware designers with a simple way to relate signal waveforms to C code.
A series of interactive, hands-on tutorials for getting started designing with the XC-1 and XC-2 development boards is also included.
