Segger offers AndesCores’ tool ecosystem
A founding member of the RISC-V Foundation, Andes has partnered with Segger to support the development process of embedded systems based on the former’s RISC-V CPUs.
Segger’s software libraries, from the RTOS embOS to file system, compression, graphics library, security, communication and IoT, as well as its integrated development environment (IDE) Embedded Studio, already support all of Andes RISC-V processors.
The J-Link debug probes and Flasher flash programmers currently support Andes RISC-V 32-bit CPU cores, including N25F, D25F and A25, with support for 64-bit CPU cores scheduled.
Andes Technology provides embedded processor intellectual property (IP). Since 2005, the company has developed high-performance, low-power processors and their associated SoC platforms to serve the rapidly growing global embedded system applications billions of units of Andes-Embedded SoC shipped globally.
According to Ivo Geilenbrügge, managing director of Segger, the company’s software tools and libraries, especially J-Link and Embedded Studio, enhance the Andes RISC-V ecosystem. “We offer a comprehensive one-stop solution for firmware and application developers,” he said.
Dr. Charlie Su, CTO and executive VP, Andes Technology, said: “Segger provides a complete ecosystem for all embedded needs. . . Together, we offer powerful solutions for Andes V5 RISC-V extended ISA to serve diversified SoCs from our customers.”
Segger Microcontroller has over 25 years’ of experience in embedded computer systems, providing software libraries and a full set of hardware tools (for development and production) and software tools.
Segger provides a real time operating system (RTOS) and a complete spectrum of software libraries including communication, security, data compression and storage, user interface software and more.
Segger’s professional software libraries and tools for embedded system development are designed for simple usage and are optimised for the requirements imposed by resource-constrained embedded systems.
