The microcontroller families such as AURIX, TRAVEO T2G, and PSOC Automotive, offer high performance, flexibility, and ease of use and have been designed for a wide range of applications.
Infineon has introduced several new and affordable development kits and free integrated development environments (IDEs), supported by comprehensive software tools, tutorials, and an extensive ecosystem to meet the needs of engineers.
Infineon's development kits, including the AURIX TC375 Lite, TRAVEO Lite, and PSOC HV MS kits, are intended to meet the requirements of modern embedded systems, but they are also equally accessible to hobbyists, start-ups, and large companies.
Free IDEs such as AURIX Development Studio and ModusToolbox enable developers to focus on developing their ideas instead of having to focus on license costs, whether for automotive, industrial, or consumer applications. Additionally, Infineon’s extensive ecosystem provides numerous resources, including tutorials, application notes, code examples, and community forums, providing developers with a platform to share knowledge and get support.
AURIX TC375 lite kit: Powering high-performance applications
The AURIX TC375 lite kit is designed for high-performance applications such as automotive, industrial automation, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
Based on the AURIX TC3xx family, it provides a platform to leverage the power of Infineon's 32-bit TriCore microcontroller architecture. The kit is supported by the AURIX Development Studio (ADS), a free IDE tailored specifically for AURIX microcontrollers. ADS provides an intuitive interface, powerful debugging tools, and a comprehensive set of software libraries to accelerate development.
Key features:
