RISC-V development system adds support for 64-bit RISC-V CPUs

SEGGER’s new release of Embedded Studio for RISC-V adds support for 64-bit RISC-V CPUs, including RV64I, RV64E, and RV64GC with the floating-point unit.

It comes integrated with SEGGER emRun C/C++ runtime and emFloat floating-point libraries, the SEGGER Linker, and the SEGGER Compiler, which together generate compact and highly efficient code. For maximum flexibility and compatibility, the GNU compiler and linker are also included.

Embedded Studio’s built-in debugger natively supports J-Link and a full-fledged simulator, ideal for automated testing. With its integration of the GDB remote protocol Embedded Studio enables the use of 3rd-party to debug probes.

As the debug probe of choice for Embedded Studio users, J-Link supports all standard 32- and 64-bit RISC-V cores including non-intrusive background, system-bus memory access as well as Real-Time Transfer (RTT).

Features also available from within Embedded Studio include direct download into flash memory via an open flash loader interface giving the RISC-V ecosystem access to SEGGER’s vast catalog of supported flash devices and the opportunity to add flash programming for newly developed devices.
