Cloud-Connected Cyclone Programming
As an alternative to the SAP Image, users may instead choose to deploy the same self-contained programming package as a Cloud-Connected Job. This is managed via PEcloud, which provides an easy-to-use online interface to manage workflow. A Cloud-Connected Job allows for unprecedented visibility of, and control over, programming operations, which reduces distribution overhead and minimizes the risk of errors while increasing security.

Option Bytes Programming Support
PEmicro supports Option Byte programming for more than a dozen STMicroelectronics devices through special programming commands that allow the user to create/modifly a User Options file, which can then be specifed as part of programming.

Development & Debug
PEmicro's debug probes offer a high-speed USB interface from the PC to target processors, and allow
for fast, easy programming and debugging. The FX adds lightning fast performance as well as
the capability to provide power to the target.
|
Streamlined debugging
PEmicro's debug probes support flash programming, execution control, breakpoints, watch points, stepping, and value inspection for STM32 and SPC5 devices.
