SmartFusion2 System-on-Chip FPGAs
ARM
Because an ARM processor was chosen for SmartFusion2 and SmartFusion devices, Microsemi's
customers can benefit from the extensive ARM ecosystem. By building on Microsemi supplied hardware
abstraction layer (HAL) and drivers, third party vendors can easily port RTOS and middleware for the
SmartFusion devices.

Microsemi's SoftConsole is a free Eclipse-based IDE that enables the rapid production of C and C++
executables for Microsemi FPGAs and cSoCs using Cortex-M3, Cortex-M1, and Core8051s. For
SmartFusion support, SoftConsole includes the GNU C/C++ compiler and GDB debugger. Additional
examples can be found on the SoftConsole page.

IAR Embedded Workbench^® for ARM/Cortex is an integrated development environment for building and
debugging embedded ARM applications using assembler, C and C++. It includes a project manager,
editor, build and debugger tools with support for RTOS-aware debugging on hardware or in a simulator.

Keil's Microcontroller Development Kit comes in two editions: MDK-ARM and MDK Basic. Both editions
feature µVision^®, the ARM Compiler, MicroLib, and RTX, but the MDK Basic edition is limited to 256K so
that small applications are more affordable.
