Dashboard aims to attract developers to ModusToolbox
Infineon has added a dashboard to its ModusToolbox development environment and enhanced board support packages (BSP) to help developers move to the tool.
ModusToolbox 3.1 adds the dashboard application that serves as a central “getting started” resource with links to key documentation, training modules, video tutorials and relevant community forums.
The dashboard provides a guided workflow for creating a new embedded project for various Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), including Microsoft Visual Studio Code, IAR Embedded Workbench, ARM MDK (µVision IDE), or Eclipse IDE as part of ModusToolbox.
The BSP Assistant, which has been significantly updated in the latest version, includes a new user interface for creating a board support package (BSP) using a device-centric flow. The latest version continues to support reference BSP from Infineon’s library of development boards.
“Learning a new development tool can seem like a challenging task,” said Clark Jarvis, Software and Tools Technical Marketer of Infineon. “Infineon’s ModusToolbox now includes a robust dashboard that gives developers key resources to make getting started easier than before. Even more, there are significant enhancements in the way the tools support development on final customer hardware using the BSP Assistant. This allows ModusToolbox to support the developer from start to finish.”
Infineon’s ModusToolbox software provides tools and embedded run-time assets to support the seamless transition from the evaluation and prototyping phase using Infineon development kits, to the creation of a custom BSP through the edit-compile-debug cycle of application development and, finally, on to final product deployment.
