What is acel32?

Acel32 is a common microcontroller development environment. It's often associated with systems that use MIPS architecture cores. Key aspects of acel32 include:

  • Compiler Toolchain: Acel32 provides a compiler toolchain, often based on GCC, for compiling C/C++ code into machine code executable on the target microcontroller. You can find details about compiler toolchain.
  • Integrated Development Environment (IDE): It offers an IDE for writing, debugging, and managing projects.
  • Debugging: Acel32 usually offers debugging capabilities, allowing developers to step through code, inspect variables, and set breakpoints. Information about debugging can be useful.
  • Libraries & APIs: It includes libraries and APIs for interacting with the microcontroller's peripherals, such as GPIO pins, timers, UART, and other interfaces.
  • Hardware Support: Acel32 supports various hardware platforms based on MIPS microcontrollers.
  • Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) Integration: Acel32 often supports the integration of RTOS to manage the software timing such as real-time operating system.
  • Low-Level Access: Developers can also access the microcontroller's hardware at a low level.
