The current release follows the recent launch of corresponding tools for Linux users, making the STM32 family readily accessible to techs and creatives comfortable with any popular computer platform, whether Windows, Linux, or OS X operating systems.
By extending its free tools across the main PC operating systems, ST says it is empowering embedded-system designers to choose from more than 600 STM32 MCU variants, with device cores ranging from ARM Cortex-M0 to Cortex-M7, a range of packages and other variants.
Compatible with the STM32Cube Hardware Abstraction Layer, middleware components and demonstration code, and ST’s Standard Peripheral Library, the tools also allow users to accesss code examples called STM32Snippets, STM32Cube expansion software packages and a range of evalulation boards.
