KEIL-C
Keil C refers to the Keil development tools for embedded systems, particularly the Keil µVision IDE and the Keil C51 Compiler used for programming micro controllers. It is widely used for developing software for ARM and 8051-based micro controllers.
Key Components of Keil C:
- µVision IDE (Integrated Development Environment):
- Provides a code editor, debugger, and project management tools.
- Supports writing, compiling, and debugging C and assembly code.
- C51 Compiler:
- Optimized C compiler for 8051 microcontrollers.
- Converts C code into machine code for microcontrollers.
- Assembler and Linker:
- Assembler for writing low-level assembly language code. o Linker combines multiple object files into a single executable file.
- Debugger:
- Simulates the microcontroller and helps debug code step-by-step.
- Can be used with real hardware using interfaces like ULINK2.
Common Use Cases:
- Embedded systems development.
- Programming 8051, ARM Cortex-M series microcontrollers.
Real-time system design and hardware control applications.
