Starter kit architecture

The IAR development software is a suite of software tools for all phases of application

development that includes:

●

KickStart 32KB C/C++ compiler to build the application and the C-SPY debugger for

debugging the application while it runs on your microcontroller.

●

code generator for developing application code based on machine states.

●

J-Link in-circuit debugger/programmer (USB/JTAG) which integrates fully with EWARM,

allowing you to download the application to your target and debug it while it runs on

your ST ARM core-based microcontroller.

●

KickStart development board that provides a full range of features to help developers

evaluate and start developing applications for the included microcontroller. The board is

powered from the J-Link’s USB connection with the host PC.
