Texas Instruments Extends Utility Of Code Composer Studio

In an ongoing effort to provide leading development tools that advance electronics manufacturers’ ability to harness the power of digital signal processing technology for the next generation of exciting applications, Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NYSE: TXN) today announced a new version of its Code Composer StudioTM Platinum Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The new Code Composer Studio Platinum, version 3.3 (CCStudio v3.3) raises multiprocessor support and analysis features to a much higher level to meet the rapidly evolving needs of advanced embedded system development. With enhanced features such as a new unified breakpoint manager, cache visibility tools, and fully integrated profiling and code coverage, CCStudio v3.3 gives DSP developers the means to analyze system operation more effectively, saving development effort and helping speed time to market for new products.

Long recognized as the most comprehensive IDE available for DSP development, CCStudio continues to introduce innovations that give programmers greater control, helping streamline debugging and analysis consistent with TI’s offering of eXpressDSPTM software and development tools. The new CCStudio v3.3 IDE meets the needs of increasingly complex DSP embedded systems that employ multiple processors and run very large programs, often with hundreds of thousands of lines of code. Such systems, representing a rapidly growing segment of the overall digital signal processing market, require sophisticated tools that enable developers to track memory utilization, detect and correct problems in code execution, and work from a unified interface that supports all system processors. CCStudio v3.3 addresses these requirements, enabling developers to analyze and debug system operation more efficiently so that they can create more robust, more reliable products while saving time and development costs.

“The new Code Composer Studio Platinum, version 3.3, provides the in-depth development support needed for building high-performance, power-efficient applications using TI’s advanced TMS320 DSPs and DaVinciTM technology digital video processors,” said Lori Vidra, eXpressDSP tools manager, TI. “The release of CCStudio v3.3 enables TI DSP customers to build feature-rich multiprocessing systems that meet the rapidly evolving demands of markets today and in the future.”
