32-bit PIC MCU'er får Green Hills support

Green Hills Software annoncerer, at firmaets MULTI IDE miljø samt kompilere og prober nu er tilgængelige til Microchip’s PIC32MZ MCU familie (in english).

Green Hills Software has announced the availability of its software development product suite with added support for the latest 32-bit microcontroller family from Microchip Technology. The Green Hills offering includes the MULTI integrated development environment, Green Hills compilers, and Green Hills Probe, which are now available for Microchip’s PIC32MZ family of microcontrollers (MCUs).

Microchip’s PIC32MZ product line is based on the MIPS microAptiv core, runs at 200 MHz/330 DMIPS, achieves a score of 654 CoreMarks, has high integration and memory density, and provides up to 35% code compression.

- Our rapidly expanding 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller portfolio is gaining broad market acceptance, with its industry-leading performance and code density, says Derek Carlson, Microchip’s Development Tools vice president.

- The PIC32MX and PIC32MZ families, together with Green Hills Software’s embedded development solutions, including its MULTI IDE, are the perfect complement for customers seeking to maximize performance and minimize product unit costs. 

Expanded range of Microchip MCUs

The Green Hills Software development environment is an integrated set of tools that is now optimised to Microchip’s latest 32-bit MCUs, leveraging CPU-specific features for high performance and minimal code size. For applications requiring embedded connectivity, the family includes Hi-Speed USB, Ethernet and CAN, along with a broad set of wired and wireless protocol stacks.

Many embedded applications are adding better graphics displays, and the PIC32MZ can support up to a WQVGA display without any external graphics chips. Streaming/digital audio applications can take advantage of this family’s 159 DSP instructions, large memory, peripherals such as I2S, and available software.

New support from Green Hills

Green Hills now supports Microchip’s PIC32MZ MCUs with its industry-leading development tools, including the complete Green Hills tools environment, consisting of compilers, debugger, IDE and probes.

- Microchip’s latest MIPS-based microcontroller family brings high performance, along with high memory and peripheral integration, to embedded applications requiring minimum footprint and cost, says Tim Reed, vice president Advanced Products, Green Hills Software.

- We are pleased to provide Green Hills Software compilers, performance analysis tools, and the complete MULTI tool suite, which are now optimised for the PIC32MZ family to help realise this vision of top-end performance efficiency.
