IAR fully supports China Micro Semiconductor automotive grade BAT32A series MCU, helping to launch domestic automotive grade "core" products

April 2023, Shanghai, China - IAR, the world's leading provider of embedded development software solutions and services, and China Microelectronics (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., a well-known chip design company, jointly announced that IAR's latest version of IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm 9.32 It has fully supported China Micro Semiconductor's automotive grade BAT32A series MCUs and will jointly support the innovative research and development of domestic automotive chips.

Based on its 22 years of technical reserves and platform resource advantages in the MCU field, AMEC has formed a rich and complete array of automotive chip products, which can provide multiple series of high-performance, high-reliability and high-security standard control chips. Among them, the automotive-grade BAT32A series MCU is based on the Arm Cortex-M0+/M4 core, which has powerful computing performance and large-capacity storage space, rich integrated peripheral functions, and excellent low-power performance. The product has high safety and has passed AEC-Q100 automotive certification. It can be widely used in a variety of automotive scenarios, such as lights, windows, doors, wireless charging, DC/DC vehicle power supply, instrument panels, digital keys, ultrasonic radar, OBC control modules, matrix headlights, electric tailgates, safety seats, ripple anti-pinch, BCM and other applications.

China Micro Semiconductor has always attached great importance to exchanges and cooperation with industry ecological partners in order to accelerate the improvement and development of the entire industry ecological chain. At present, in addition to establishing a rich automotive-grade MCU product matrix and a high-standard automotive grade quality management system, it has established long-term strategic partnerships with more leading Tier 1 suppliers and OEMs in the industry. The software architecture cooperation involving the domain control part is also It is deepening.

IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm provides a complete tool chain for the AMEC BAT32A series, helping users improve development efficiency, reduce project costs, ensure product quality, accelerate innovation, and shorten product time to market . IAR Embedded Workbench has a highly optimized compiler, including flexible compiler optimization options and powerful optimization performance, which can help users optimize to meet specific needs in different applications; as well as advanced debugging features, such as flexible code and data breakpoints , runtime stack analysis, call stack visualization. With the code analysis tools C-STAT and C-RUN, developers can improve code quality during daily development.

Li Zhenhua, Vice President of R&D and General Manager of Automotive Electronics Division of AMEC Semiconductor, said: "IAR is the world's leading embedded system development solutions and service provider. We are very happy to cooperate with IAR. Currently, AMEC Semiconductor's automotive grade BAT32A The series of MCUs have received full support from IAR Embedded Workbench for Arm 9.32. We believe that with IAR’s powerful code optimization capabilities and complete tool chain, developers can focus on technological innovation, allowing automotive customers to complete MCU code more efficiently and conveniently. Debugging and optimization, reducing design time and time to market.”

Micro Semiconductor focuses on building a win-win chain for automotive ecological partners. It will strengthen in-depth cooperation with IAR in the future to expand the development of small domain control product lines in the connection domain, power domain and assisted driving domain. Software and hardware integration and multi-party collaboration will jointly promote localization. Automotive chip ecological construction.

Kiyo Uemura, Vice President of IAR Asia Pacific, said: "AMI Semiconductor is a very powerful MCU manufacturer in China, and more and more IAR users are using AMEC's ​​chips. We are very happy to reach an agreement with AMEC. Through cooperation, IAR will continue to provide comprehensive tool chain support for AMEC's ​​MCUs, help AMEC MCU customers maximize the potential of MCUs and provide local technical support to fulfill our long-term commitment to Chinese customers and the market."
