IAR Embedded Workbench includes support for 64-bit RISC-V cores
Support for 64-bit RISC-V cores is now available in the professional development toolchain IAR Embedded Workbench for RISC-V.
IAR Embedded Workbench for RISC-V is a complete C/C++ compiler and debugger toolchain with everything embedded developers need integrated in one single IDE (integrated development environment), including integrated code analysis tools ensuring code quality. Through its optimisation technology, IAR Embedded Workbench for RISC-V helps developers ensure the application fits the required needs and optimise the utilisation of on-board memory. Version 3.10 of IAR Embedded Workbench for RISC-V supports RV64 RISC-V cores, including several RV64 devices from Andes, Codasip, Microchip, Nuclei and SiFive, extending the toolchain’s support for available RISC-V devices, confirmed IAR Systems. In addition, symmetric multi-core processing (SMP) is now supported, enabling high-performance debugging of multicore RISC-V devices.
IAR Systems said this brings high-performance, well-established technology to companies choosing the emerging RISC-V 64-bit cores for development projects.
“64-bit support is an important milestone for our investment in the RISC-V technology and ecosystem,” commented Anders Holmberg, CTO, IAR Systems. “RISC-V technology adoption and interest continues to grow . . . and we are committed to stay in the forefront when it comes to professional development solutions for building high-quality embedded applications across all industries,” he said.
IAR Systems also provides build tools for RISC-V enabling modern and scalable build server topologies for CI/CD pipelines as well as functional safety-certified editions of the toolchain. The company also offers professional technical support.
IAR Systems supplies future-proof software tools and services for embedded development.
Since 1983, IAR Systems’ software has been used in the development of over one million embedded applications.
The company is headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden and has sales and support offices around the world. Since 2018, Secure Thingz, the domain expert in device security, embedded systems, and lifecycle management, has been part of IAR Systems Group AB.
