What
is Astrobe?
Astrobe
is a rapid integrated ARM software development system running on Windows.
It has a multi-file, fully featured, syntax-aware programmer's editor,
native code ARM compiler and linker. Use it to develop reliable software
to run on the powerful NXP / Philips LPC2000 family of ARM-based microcontrollers.
Astrobe
uses the programming language Oberon-07.
You can now develop efficient high- and low-level 32-bit native code ARM
software without having to use assembler or C. The power of Oberon is such
that the compiler, linker and runtime system were able to be implemented
using the language.
Astrobe
identifies many common programming errors at compile / link time before
you even run your program; most others are automatically trapped at runtime.
The system identifies the point of failure by module name and source code
line number so valuable time is not wasted chasing spurious side-effects.
The
startup files, library modules and linker included with Astrobe support
the following families of ARM7 microcontrollers from NXP (Philips):
-
LPC2101
/ 2102 / 2103
-
LPC2104
/ 2105 / 2106
-
LPC2142
/ 2144 / 2146 / 2148
-
LPC2212
/ 2214
-
LPC2364
/ 2366 / 2368 / 2378
Source
code of the startup files and library modules is available.
Check
the Features Matrix
to see what is available in each edition.
Try
the ready to compile and run LPC2000-specific source code examples distributed
with Astrobe - such as the example
code for a simple LED-blinking program. Download Oberon programming
text
books for source code examples used to solve general programming tasks.
Oberon-07
Code in Action
The
software used in these examples is 99% Oberon-07. This includes the microcontroller
configuration, runtime error trapping and reporting facilities, LCD drivers
and the application itself. The remainder consists of the few lines of
assembler startup code that is required for ARM7 microcontrollers.
The
file sizes shown are the TOTAL executable sizes. The full source
code is available on request for users of the Professional Edition of Astrobe.
AutoCAD
Slide Viewer (17 KB)
The
application processes AutoCAD Slide-format vector graphics image files.
The first two AutoCAD Slide images are processed in real time, the second
two have built-in delays to show the drawing as it proceeds. The image
data file sizes are 5 KB for the Space Shuttle and 28 KB for St Pauls.
The data files are appended to the executable and read from flash ROM by
the program using Astrobe's 'resource management' facilities.
Digital
Clock (8 KB)
A simple
digital clock application running on a mikroElektronika EasyArm LPC2148
development board with no operating system or external RAM.
Technical
Support
Quick
and accurate technical support is vital to the usefulness of any software
development system. Direct
technical support is provided via our website and is even available
to Evaluation
Edition users.
Astrobe
has been tested with a range of LPC2000-based development
and educational boards. No special-purpose hardware is needed to program
the microcontrollers with these boards. The compiled code is uploaded to
the target from a PC via an RS232 or USB connection using FlashMagic
or software supplied with the board.
