Selection Guide of Low Cost Tools for Cortex-M3
By allankliu Nov 18th, 2009
|
As I mentioned in another article, ARM Cortex-M3 is not compatible with ARM7TDMI in interrupt, ISA, bus structure and JTAG protocol (SWD). You have to upgrade ARM7TDMI tools to support Cortex-M3 microcontrollers. After a small research, I summarize following tool related information for your reference. |
