IAR Systems enhances Renesas’ R-IN32M3 development platform

Uppsala, Sweden—June 17, 2014—IAR Systems® today announces that its world-leading development tools for ARM enhances and extends the R-IN32M3 platform for industrial Ethernet protocols from Renesas Electronics, a premium supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions.

The R-IN32M3 is tailored for industrial networking applications. It significantly improves industrial Ethernet network performance with optimized hardware accelerators, while reducing costs by supporting multiple protocols such as EtherCAT®, EtherNet/IP®, PROFINET®, CANopen® and more, from a single device. It can be used for real-time network communication in gateways, I/O controllers, PLCs/PACs, embedded controllers, industrial drives and countless other networked applications. Its design flexibility allows one system design to serve a diversity of networks and applications.

To ease development and evaluation of R-IN32M3, IAR Systems has launched its starter kit IAR KickStart Kit™ for R-IN32M3 which includes IAR Embedded Workbench® for ARM. IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM is a complete and high-performance development toolchain including the highly-optimizing IAR C/C++ Compiler™ and the feature-rich C-SPY® Debugger in a user-friendly integrated development environment. It offers the world’s broadest support for Renesas microcontrollers, including the low-power ARM Cortex-M R-IN32M3 device.

IAR KickStart Kit for R-IN32M3 contains evaluation versions of IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM, a R-IN32M3 development board, an I-jet Lite debug probe and several example projects. The kit can be used to evaluate the tools and the included R-IN32M3 microcontroller. More information about the kit and Renesas’ development platform is available on www.iar.com/renesas/R-IN32M3.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
