Segger combines ARM and RISC-V in single IDE
Cette publication existe aussi en Français
Segger in Germany has launched a version of its Embedded Studio development tool that supports both ARM and RISC-V architectures.
Version 8.10 of the Segger Embedded Studio allows the same software and setup to be used to build and debug programs for both RISC-V and ARM microcontrollers.
A single download can be used on all supported platforms across Windows, macOS and Linux running on all supported host CPUs from both Intel and ARM rather than having to use separate versions. This allows developers to focus on the code development and target the microcontroller architecture later in the project.
It comes with a project manager and source code editor. The editor is quick to start up and the build process is fast and includes Segger’s highly optimized emRun runtime and emFloat floating-point libraries, as well as the smart Linker, all of which have been developed from the ground up specifically for resource-constrained embedded systems.

“The best multi-platform IDE on the market just got even better,” says Dirk Akemann, Marketing Manager at Segger. “Our emRun runtime and emFloat floating-point libraries, the smart SEGGER Linker, and the highly optimizing C/C++ SEGGER Compiler work seamlessly to maximize performance and minimize code size. Being our own most demanding customer, we continuously and extensively use, update, and enhance this software in-house.”
Other enhancements include new mechanisms for code completion, context-sensitive suggestions, and diagnostics. Tool tips provide context-sensitive details about every part of the code. Warnings, errors, and diagnostics are available while writing code, without having to wait for the project to build.
Embedded Studio has direct integration for J-Link. It also supports virtually any debug probe through its GDB Server protocol integration. Additionally, direct integration for ST-Link is now included.
While J-Link debug probes provide unparalleled debug performance, an extensive feature set, and support for thousands of devices, the native integration of ST-Link makes it easy to get embedded development started on commonly used ST evaluation boards.
With Segger’s ‘Friendly License’, Embedded Studio is available for unlimited evaluation, and for educational and non-commercial purposes, free of charge, with no restrictions in terms of code size, features or duration of use.
