Hello everyone,
For years, I've been using Atmel SAM3N and SAM4N series processors with Atmel Studio 6.2 for free. I also have some experience with SAME70. I've been very satisfied with both the processors and the development environment.
I have never used RTOS or Linux; I’ve always written C/C++ code directly via the IDE.
Unfortunately, none of these older series support Gigabit Ethernet. I am now looking for an ARM processor with Gigabit Ethernet support.
Another important consideration, besides hardware capabilities, is software support and the availability of a free IDE or something like MBED.
Below, I have listed some high-performance ARM Cortex-A7 and Cortex-A9 processors and the free IDEs available for them:
Which processor with free software support would you recommend?
Best regards,
