SEGGER’s line of J-Link debug probes can now be used to both download a program into and debug Allegro MicroSystems MCUs. With J-Link support comes the Ozone multi-platform debugger, as well as the Flasher family of professional in-circuit programmers for production programming and use by service technicians.
Also available will be SEGGER’s complete development ecosystem which includes Embedded Studio; SystemView; cutting-edge software libraries for connectivity, security, data compression/storage, and the Internet of Things; and emPower OS - a complete operating system for creating embedded systems.
A global supplier of semiconductors, Allegro MicroSystems supplies sensor and analogue power integrated circuits for a wide range of automotive, industrial, and infrastructure applications.
Among the latest additions to the Allegro portfolio are the A89211, A89212, and A89224 system-on-chip devices for three-phase brushless DC and permanent-magnet-synchronous-motor motor-control applications. These devices integrate a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 processor core, with up to 256 KB of flash memory; a versatile three-phase gate-drive unit; and additional peripherals for efficient and precise motor-control applications.
“This partnership means that developers using our A892XX family of products now have access to the SEGGER ecosystem,” said Christoph Stangl, Product Marketing Manager for Motor Drivers, Allegro MicroSystems. “SEGGER’s line of J-Link debug probes makes debugging easier and faster, while their family of Flashers makes production more efficient.”
“Allegro brings fresh momentum to the embedded market, and we are pleased to announce this collaboration,” added Hendrik Sawukajtis, Managing Director, SEGGER. “Their solutions drive key functions in automotive, industrial, and data-centre applications, and we’re proud to contribute to their development ecosystem. With our high-performance, reliable debug probes, we help engineers streamline development and reduce time to market.”
