The Segger Embedded Studio integrated development environment (IDE) has all the tools and features a developer needs for professional embedded C and C++ development, including a complete toolchain, optimized run-time library, core simulator and hardware debugging with the J-Link debug probes.

• Pin compatible RISC-V microcontroller takes on ARM
• IAR compiler and debugger supports GigaDevice's RISC-V controllers
• Europe steps up as RISC-V ships 10bn cores

"We have been partners with GigaDevice and have supported GigaDevice products for many years now," says Ivo Geilenbruegge, Managing Director of Segger. "We immediately added full tool support when they unveiled the first commercially available flash-based RISC-V microcontroller back in 2019. We are impressed by their speed of innovation, the many new devices they have brought to market, and the extent to which they've quickly become a key player in the industry."

"Segger was the first ecosystem partner to support the GD32V RISC-V core MCU and making Embedded Studio available to our customers free of charge facilitates software development for our GD32V series," said Eric Jin, GigaDevice's Product Marketing Director.

"Embedded Studio fully supports and adapts to the GD32V family of RISC-V MCUs in terms of efficiency, performance, and ease of use, significantly accelerating the development and mass production of innovative applications."
