Raisonance
,
Silicon Labs
, Spansion,
ST
,
Texas Instruments
and
Toshiba
.
CMSIS Version 4
The new version features a new CMSIS-Pack and CMSIS-Driver specification.
The CMSIS-Pack describes a delivery mechanism for software components, device parameters, and evaluation board support. It specifies with an XML-based package description (PDSC) file the content of a file collection that includes:
Source code, header files, and software libraries
Documentation and source code templates
Device parameters along with startup code and programing algorithms
Example projects
The PDSC file is designed for software development environments and describes the user and device relevant context for the files supplied within a CMSIS-Pack.
The CMSIS-Driver specification is a software API describing peripheral driver interfaces for middleware stacks. A CMSIS-Driver connects a microcontroller peripheral with middleware that implements for example communication stacks, file systems, or graphic user interfaces. CMSIS-
Drivers are RTOS independent and designed to be generic, making middleware reusable across the wide range of supported microcontroller devices.
