Hitex Cortino debugs Toshiba microcontrollers
Hitex Development Tools
Cortino
Hitex has adapted its tool chain to support Toshiba's TMPM370 microcontroller series designed for high-efficiency AC-motor applications such as washing machines, refrigerators and air conditioners.
The TMPM370 combines an 80MHz ARM Cortex-M3 core with a hardware vector engine into a compact, highly efficient device that can simplify applications requiring precision control of sensored and sensorless three-phase brushless-DC (BLDC) motors or three-phase induction motors.
The TMPM370's characteristics are supported by Hitex' Cortino, integrating a complete development suite with Hitop IDE, GNU Cortex compiler and JTAG debug interface.
Cortino provides all standard debugging functions, such as source-code debugging, hardware and software breakpoints, data watchpoints, single-step, register and memory view, as well as flash programming.
For more demanding development tasks the Tantino for Cortex offers faster download speeds and adds support for the serial-wire-debug interface.
Based on the Serial Wire Viewer (SWV), Tantino for Cortex provides access to extended features such as data trace, semi hosting or performance analysis.
