iF-DEV Free Tools for ARM7/9/XScale
You can get started developing on an ARM for only $99 with dev. kit from iSystem AG. iF-DEV is a complete development tool solution for ARM7, ARM9 and XScale (see Fig. below). The system includes everything you need to get started. The small target board contains an ARM-based NXP LPC2138 microcontroller along with a USB-based JTAG debugger. Power to the target is provided by the JTAG’s USB interface.
iF-DEV also provides an ARM-based miniTarget to jump-start development. Power is provided by the USB port, so no power supply is required. The miniTarget may be supplied VCC if desired.
The iF-DEV comes with winIDEA, iSYSTEM’s powerful Integrated Development Environment, that is based on the GNU C/C++ compiler tool chain. The suit also has the winIDEA debugger and a number of sample applications.
