Microcontroller development tool now free for Mac users
STMicroelectronics has made its free development tools for STM32 microcontrollers available to Mac computer users, who can now easily create embedded designs without leaving their preferred operating environment.
The STM32 development tools for the OS X operating system support the complete embedded design flow and comprise the STM32CubeMX graphical configuration tool and System Workbench for STM32, including the drivers that enable direct use of ST debugging and programming probes. The tools are easy to install and use.
The release follows the recent launch of corresponding tools for Linux users, making the STM32 family readily accessible to techs and creatives comfortable with either Windows, Linux or OS X operating systems. By extending its tools across the main PC operating systems, ST empowers embedded-system designers to choose from over 600 STM32 microcontroller variants.
Tools for all platforms can be downloaded freely at www.st.com/stm32cubemx and www.st.com/sw4stm32. They are compatible with the STM32Cube Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), middleware components and demonstration code and ST’s Standard Peripheral Library. Users can also take advantage of STM32Snippets low-overhead code examples, STM32Cube expansion software packages, and accelerated hardware development using STM32 Nucleo boards, STM32 Discovery Kits or fully featured evaluation boards.
