Command Line Assembler

Michael Collier
Note: This was originally posted on 1st December 2009 at http://forums.arm.com

Hi

I'm new to ARM, I'm developing a cross platform BASIC compiler for pic/avr/freescale for the school & hobby market and ARM has been suggested as another device to add to the list...

1. Does ARM have a command line assembler that I can download and distribute?

2. Does the assembler support macros with simple parameter passing?

3. I currently use a range of devices from 8 pin up to 40 pin, my users are mostly learners needing a few digital in/outs, some a2d and pwm, and on board eeprom for data storage. Maybe someone could point me in the direction of 1 or more ARM devices that have these features so I can download datasheets and order samples... Nothing too large or complicated at this stage...

Thanks in advance...

    The first thing I'd recommend you look at is [url="http://mbed.org"]http://mbed.org[/url] - It is ARMs Rapid Prototying for MCU solution. Its sole intention is lower the barrier for people to get started with ARM MCUs to get them experimenting with hardware and software. It might be suitable for what you are trying to achieve.

    Many thanks,
    Chris
