IAR Systems supports STM32 F0 low-cost ARM Cortex-M0 MCUs from ST

UPPSALA, SWEDEN: IAR Systems announced that its high-performing C/C++ compiler and debugger tool suite IAR Embedded Workbench now supports STM32F051. This device is part of the recently announced family of STM32 F0 microcontrollers from STMicroelectronics. The STM32 F0 series is an entirely new family of devices, combining enhanced features with the ultra-low-power ARM Cortex-M0 embedded processor for extremely cost-sensitive applications.

The new devices are targeted for development of home and industrial electronic applications such as home automation, home appliances, motor control, sensors, audio/video receivers, TVs, remote controls, and game consoles. With this new family, STMicroelectronics specifically addresses applications previously served by 8- and 16-bit MCUs, supplying a complete portfolio including enhanced features at extremely competitive prices.

IAR Embedded Workbench features the highly optimizing IAR C/C++ compiler, which, thanks to its advanced optimization technology, is able to produce the smallest possible code for ARM Cortex-M0 microcontrollers.

“IAR Embedded Workbench generates the sort of compact code that makes the STM32 F0 devices run at their most efficient levels. ST has worked with IAR Systems since the beginning of our ARM program, and their development tools have helped make our MCUs widely adopted,” said Michel Buffa, GM, Microcontroller Division, STMicroelectronics.

Support for the new family is included in IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM, version 6.30.6, available now.
