Red Suite

Red Suite is a complete software development platform for 32-bit microcontroller devices available to target Luminary Micro Stellaris® Cortex-M3 based microcontrollers.

Red Suite integrates Red Trace™ Real Time Trace capability delivering features never before available to microcontroller developers. Red Trace capitalizes on the serial wire viewing (SWV) technology in Stellaris microcontrollers to deliver unprecedented visibility during debug. Red Trace delivers high accuracy profiling, interrupt statistics, interrupt tracing, RTOS event tracing and a useful and unique no overhead host-strings viewing mechanism, which provides printf style debugging and logging without any of the intrusiveness typical to other embedded debug methods. Interrupt tracing provides impressive graphical visualization of what is really going on in a real time system.

Red Suite has been developed from the ground up for 32-bit microcontroller application developments and offers a complete professional development environment for C, C++ and assembler programming, with features and facilities previously unavailable in the microcontroller market. The new features include MCU specific project wizards, a full embedded debugger, text indentation, function folding, online and offline integrated MCU help, extensive project management automation and integrated source repository support. These MCU-specific features facilitate the rapid creation of the necessary startup and initialization code for programming a Stellaris microcontroller.
