IAR Systems adds extensive functionality to world-leading tools for Texas Instruments MSP430

Uppsala, Sweden—June 29, 2012—IAR Systems® has released a new version of its world-leading embedded development tool suite for the ultra-low-power 16-bit MSP430 microcontroller family from Texas Instruments (TI), and continues to deliver functionality for ease-of-use and high performance.

IAR Embedded Workbench® for MSP430, version 5.50, includes a new text editor and source browser. The new editor introduces user-friendly features such as auto-completion, code folding, block selection, block indentation, bracket matching, and zooming. Word/paragraph navigation have also been improved, and parameter hints show the function arguments. The new features makes it easier for embedded developers to quickly navigate through their code, and enables more efficient code writing with fewer key strokes.

Recently added to IAR Embedded Workbench for MSP430 was an integration of the new ULP Advisor™ code analysis software tool from Texas Instruments. TI’s ULP Advisor software is a power-optimization teaching tool. It provides a static code analyzer that flags software code and offers tips and tricks to help developers understand where they can improve their code line-by-line to minimize power consumption and achieve ultra-low-power performance

How MediaTek Optimizes SI Design with Cadence Optimality Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver

Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems

In the era of 5G/6G communication, signal integrity (SI) design considerations are important in high-speed interface design. MediaTek’s design process usually relies on human intuition, but with Cadence’s Optimality Intelligent System Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver, they’ve increased design productivity by 75X. The Optimality Explorer’s AI technology not only improves productivity, but also provides helpful insights and answers.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
