Custom SoC Development Tools
Arm Development Studio is the most complete end-to-end development environment for all Arm-based SoC projects. From fast IP evaluation to shipping an optimized board support package (BSP) for your SoC, Arm’s flagship tool suite provides a single solution for semiconductor companies to adopt throughout the product lifecycle.
Tools for Every Stage of Your Project
Code
With an improved user experience compared to previous generation tools, Development Studio contains the flexible Eclipse IDE. It enables intuitive source code editing, project management and integration for several productivity plugins, such as version control. Best of all, it is just as effective working on Linux or Windows host platforms.
Build
Arm C/C++ Compiler leads the way in performance, code density, architectural accuracy and safety for bare-metal and real-time OS applications on Arm. Based on over 25 years of investment in compiler technology and developed alongside the Arm architecture means that the Arm Compiler builds the most efficient code possible for Arm processors.
Debug
This single debug environment allows developers to test, verify, and optimize code. Arm Debugger enables the seamless development on virtual and physical prototypes, simple and complex SoC detection and high-speed CoreSight trace capabilities when used in conjunction with DSTREAM Family of hardware debug probes.
Optimize
Streamline is a system-wide analysis tool for Linux, Android and bare-metal embedded systems. It captures performance information from the CPU, GPU and OS, giving developers better insight into how software executes. Streamline helps developers quickly zoom in on bottlenecks, multi-threading issues and inefficient resource usage.
Model
Developers can co-design software before hardware availability when connecting to Arm Fast Models to power accelerated SoC design.
