ARM TechCon 2013

Ranked one of the top three must-attend events in the embedded industry, ARM® TechCon™ is more than a conference. ARM TechCon’s unique 360-degree interactive training ground seeded to connect, instruct, advise and enable the world of electronic and ARM-based computer design provides attendees with a comprehensive understanding of ARM-based technology.

Through technical sessions, hands-on labs, exhibits, demonstrations, keynote and panel discussions, chip designers, system implementation engineers and software developers obtain exclusive access to trending design strategies, methodologies and tools for building ARM-based products.

This year, ARM TechCon connects software to hardware communities, and both to ARM Ecosystem Partners. As hardware engineers and software developers continue to collaborate on designs and integrate technologies these communities now work synergistically to accelerate time to market and optimize their designs utilizing both hardware and software.

ARM TechCon 2013 combines sessions for chip designers, system implementation engineers, and software developers in a shared venue, facilitating communities’ interaction, learning and collaboration.

ARM Releases Development Tools For Its Embedded Linux Community

The ARM Development Studio 5 (DS-5™) Community Edition is a free professional quality toolchain developed by ARM to accelerate the development of native (C/C++) embedded Linux and Android™ applications. Based on DS-5 Professional Edition, this toolkit offers essential debug and system analysis for you to create robust and highly optimized applications for ARM processor-based devices, without the fuss and inefficiencies usually attached to fragmented open source tools.

April 23, 2013 -- ARM® has extended the scope of the ARM Development Studio 5 (DS-5™) Community Edition (CE) to provide a fully featured, industry standard, and free-to-use software development environment for ARM Embedded Linux applications.

DS-5 CE provides an integrated solution including an Eclipse IDE, GNU cross-compiler, DS-5 Debugger, Streamline™ performance analyzer, online help and software examples. This level of integration enables developers to get up and running with their projects in virtually no time. In addition, DS-5 CE runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OS hosts, making it ideal for microcontroller users moving into the world of Linux.

...

More information on DS-5 CE is available on http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/.

DS-5 CE is available now. New users can benefit from all the components in DS-5 CE by doing a standard DS-5 installation and registering an activation code from http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/getting-started/ Developers with an existing Eclipse IDE and Linux compiler can install the DS-5 Debugger and Streamline components of DS-5 CE as Eclipse plug-ins from http://ds.arm.com/ds-5-community-edition/getting-started-update-site/.

ARM documentation set for the ARM Cortex-M3 processors

ARM documentation set for the ARM Cortex-M3 processors

The ARM Cortex-M3 processor is a low-power processor that features low gate count, low interrupt latency, and low-cost debug. It is intended for deeply embedded applications that require fast interrupt response, including microcontrollers and automotive and industrial control systems. The ARM Cortex-M3 processor implements the ARMv7-M architecture profile.

• Cortex-M3 Devices Generic User Guide
• Cortex-M3 Technical Reference Manual
• Errata: Cortex-M3/Cortex-M3 with ETM (AT420/AT425)

Application Note of Cortex-M3 Embedded Software Development

The Arduino Due is a microcontroller board based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 CPU (datasheet). It is the first Arduino board based on a 32-bit ARM core microcontroller. The Application Note 179 Cortex™-M3 Embedded Software Development, from ARM Information Center, introduces the main features of the ARM Cortex™-M3 processor and describes different aspects of developing software for it. It also covers the migration of existing ARM projects to the Cortex-M3 platform. PDF version available at the bottom of the page.
