PERCEPIO ANNOUNCES TRACEALYZER
SUPPORT FOR AZURE RTOS THREADX
SMP. NEIL TYLER REPORTS
Percepio, a specialist in visual trace
diagnostics for embedded systems
and the Internet of Things (IoT), has
announced Tracealyzer support for Azure
RTOS ThreadX SMP systems.
As a result, Azure RTOS developers
will have the same level of insight into
multicore systems that is currently
available to embedded Linux developers,
such as the ability to track software
threads as they migrate between cores
and to view CPU load per core.
Tracealyzer provides visual trace
diagnostics and will be helpful for users
of Azure RTOS ThreadX SMP who want
to improve software reliability, system
performance and development productivity.
It is able to leverage the event-logging
already present in Azure RTOS ThreadX
SMP, so developers can deploy Tracealyzer
in new and existing projects. This is a
pure software solution that runs on all
processors supported by Azure RTOS
ThreadX SMP, including Xilinx Zynq and
other Arm Cortex-A processors.
“More embedded and IoT software
systems rely on multicore processors,
enabling developers to build more powerful
and complex systems,” said Johan Kraft,
CEO, Percepio. “As a result, it’s even more
important to have quality insight into the
runtime system, which is what we offer with
Tracealyzer’s new support for Azure RTOS
ThreadX SMP.”
SEGGER Embedded Studio build
for Apple M1Cloud Platform

SEGGER has announced its Embedded Studio build for
the newly released Apple M1, Apple’s rst ARM-based
system-on-chip (SoC) designed speci cally for Mac.
The Embedded Studio is SEGGER’s cross-platform
Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for ARM/
Cortex and RISC-V.
While the ARM-based M1 can execute applications
for Intel x86-based CPUs using Apple’s Rosetta 2
translator, applications built speci cally for the M1
core execute much faster and use less power.
To fully utilise the speed and performance
potential of a natively compiled application, SEGGER
has created a build of Embedded Studio for M1.
There are now two macOS packages available – one
for the Intel x86-64 and one for the Apple M1.
“The Embedded Studio build for the Apple M1 is
truly cutting-edge,” said Ivo Geilenbrügge, Managing
Director of SEGGER. “This is the rst commercial
embedded system IDE optimised for the M1 and the
performance results of our comparison tests show it
was worth the work.”
