Welcome to the CMSIS-PACK for Eclipse wiki!

Cortex Microcontroller Software Interface Standard (CMSIS)

The CMSIS enables consistent and simple software interfaces to the processor for interface peripherals, real-time operating systems, and middleware. It simplifies software re-use, reducing the learning curve for new microcontroller developers and cutting the time-to-market for devices.

For more information visit the CMSIS Website.

CMSIS-Pack:

CMSIS-Pack describes a delivery mechanism for software components, device parameters, and evaluation board support. The XML-based package description (PDSC) file describes the content of a Software Pack (file collection) that includes:

* Source code, header files, and software libraries
* Documentation and source code templates
* Device parameters along with startup code and programming algorithms
* Example projects

The complete file collection along with the PDSC file is shipped in ZIP-format as a Software Pack. The PDSC file is designed for software development environments and describes the user and device relevant context for the files supplied within such a Software Pack.

Eclipse Plug-In:

This public repository is intended to make the content of Software Packs accessible within the Eclipse environment, without the need to implement the basic infrastructure for processing the information contained in the PDSC files.
