CODESCAPE Tools

CODESCAPE Development Tools and IDE


CODESCAPE™ is a comprehensive suite of development tools that supports the advanced and unique features of the META and ENSIGMA UCC IP cores within a state-of-the-art integrated development environment (IDE).

On-time delivery of leading-edge embedded solutions enabled by META processors requires world-class tools. These tools must streamline programming, debugging, and application optimization at all stages of SoC development to reduce development risk, and ensure the best possible power consumption and system utilization.

The CODESCAPE™ development system incorporates a highly optimized GNU-based C/C++ compiler, assembler and multi-threaded linker. It also provides custom target hardware, debug adapters, software simulators, performance analysis tools, and many other components essential to successful SoC and application development.

Starting out as a specialized development solution for games developers, CODESCAPE™ is now used worldwide in most areas of embedded development, and has proved its effectiveness by delivering many successful SoCs. Its comprehensive features and solid support enable both rapid development and optimum use of both the META IP core's multi-threaded architecture and 16-bit instruction set, and the ENSIGMA UCC.
