Neubiberg, Germany – April 13, 2012 – Offering comprehensive and efficient development supportfor its XMC4000 industrial microcontroller family Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX:IFNNY) today announced download availability of its DAVE™ 3 integrated development platformenvironment. DAVE 3 can be downloaded from the Infineon website (www.infineon.com/dave). Itincludes an auto code generator based on DAVE™ Apps, a free GNU compiler and a free debuggerincluding flash loader. Furthermore, Infineon already cooperates with more than 15 partners andadditional partners are expected to join soon. They provide further specific development tools,including compilers, debuggers, software analysis and Flash programming; software solutions;training and consulting services for the recently launched XMC4000 family that uses the Cortex™M4 processor from ARM®.

 

”Infineon put a lot of thought into DAVE 3 to facilitate and shorten software development for ourcustomers,” said Dr. Stephan Zizala, Senior Director, Industrial and Multimarket Microcontrollersat Infineon Technologies AG. „With our free-of-charge DAVE 3 developers can efficiently use theinnovative, application optimized peripherals via a graphical user interface.”

 

DAVE 3: Comprehensive and efficient development support for XMC4000

 

DAVE 3 is a free, Eclipse-based software development platform for the XMC4000 family. Itincludes a free tool-chain and supports automatic code generation thus facilitating the use ofpredefined and tested software components, the so-called “DAVE Apps”. In contrast to the typicalcurrent tools that offer libraries and code examples, the DAVE Apps are more abstract, allowgraphical combination of several DAVE Apps and enable automatic, conflict free mapping to theavailable hardware resources of the chip. Along with the free DAVE 3 also the first 28 DAVE Appsare downloadable to support Ethernet, TCP-IP and file system applications, data integrity andencryption/decryption solutions. The first set of DAVE Apps also includes PWM generationsupport, various counter and timer use cases, clock configuration, interrupt handling and DMA(Direct Memory Access) configuration. Further DAVE Apps will be released continuously; theywill cover a wide range of low level and middleware applications including free real-time operatingsystems that support the CMSIS RTOS API (Application Programming Interface).

 

As DAVE 3 is an open platform it allows flexible extensions and adaptations. In addition to the freecompiler, linker, debugger and flash loader, there will be plug-ins from commercial tool-vendorsavailable. Consequently the users can stay with their preferred IDE while fully utilizing theautocode generation functionality of DAVE 3.

DAVE 3 is now available for free download on the Infineon website at www.infineon.com/dave.
