IAR Systems has announced that Micromint, a leading supplier of single-board computers and industrial embedded controllers, has selected IAR Systems as its tools partner for its latest computer board targeted at the industrial market. The new Eagle 100 board commenced shipping in August this year, and each unit includes a KickStart version of IAR Systems flagship C/C++ compiler IAR Embedded Workbench. A developer’s kit is available with IAR J-Link hardware debug probe.
The Eagle 100 is a single board computer designed for cost-sensitive control applications that require real-time performance, networking and extensive support of popular peripherals. It delivers 32-bit performance and features, at a cost comparable to that of legacy 8- and 16-bit controllers. Powered by a Luminary Micro ARM Cortex-M3 core capable of over 60 MIPS, the Eagle 100 is capable of fulfilling demanding requirements in monitoring, instrumentation, data acquisition, process control, factory automation and many other applications. An extensive array of peripherals is built-in, and expandability is available using PC/104 I/O cards. Several of the peripherals can be reconfigured using the programmable logic capabilities of the integrated CPLD. Code examples are included with the Eagle 100, and these provide a rapid start for the developer.
