Code Composer Studio™

Code Composer Studio™ is an integrated development environment (IDE) for TI's microcontrollers and processors. CCS comprises a suite of tools used to develop and debug embedded applications. Code Composer Studio includes an optimizing C/C++ compiler, source code editor, project build environment, debugger, profiler and many other features. The intuitive IDE takes you through each step of the application development flow. Familiar tools and interfaces make getting started simple.

Some salient features of the CCS are mentioned below.

  • Code Composer Studio includes C/C++ compilers tailored to get maximum performance and best code size for TI devices. The TI Arm Clang compiler combines LLVM and Clang with TI added features such as link time optimization to provide exceptional code size for TI Arm®-based microcontrollers.
  • Resource Explorer provides access to the resources needed for embedded development. Quickly access examples, training, software development kits and documentation tailored to the device being used. Resource Explorer is included with Code Composer Studio and is also available in the cloud on the TI Developer Zone.
  • SysConfig is an intuitive and comprehensive tool for configuring pins, peripherals, drivers, radios and other components. SysConfig simplifies configuration challenges and accelerates software development.
  • EnergyTrace™ is an analysis tool that measures and displays the energy profile of microcontroller and wireless connectivity applications and helps optimize for ultra-low-power consumption.
  • Code Composer Studio provides many advanced debug capabilities. The runtime object view provides insight into the status of RTOS objects such as tasks, stacks, timers and semaphores.
  • Code Composer Studio has a complete scripting environment allowing for the automation of tasks such as testing and performance benchmarking.
