The new year 2024 is coming, so time to close the current year with a new release: I’m pleased to announce a new release of the Processor Expert components, available on SourceForge and GitHub.

💡 Not using Processor Expert? No worries, I have you covered. The source code of many components are hosted on GitHub:

From the release notes (see GitHub for all the changes):

• FreeRTOS v11.0.0 with SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processing)
• Added support for Linux: many components no can be used in a Linux gcc environment
• Extended support for ESP32: more components support the Espressif system
• Extended support for Raspberry Pi Pico RP2040
• Extended SEGGER SystemView to support Heap tracking with FreeRTOS, updated to v3.42
• Many smaller bug fixes and improvements

While the Processor Expert components itself are considered legacy, they have a new life in McuLib project on GitHub. Many components are used to generate static code, and the McuLib is used in many of our projects. The library with a set of middle-ware on GitHub covers STM32, NXP i.MX/Kinetis/LPC/HC08/S32K, Raspberry Pi, Nordic, ESP32 and RISC-V micro controllers. As a cross-platform library, different IDE’s as Eclipse (MCUXpresso, KDS, CodeWarrior), Visual Studio Code and bare make and cmake environments are supported.

Happy Experting 🙂
