Device Support

• Device properties explaining the capabilities of a device or a device family in more detail.
• Software components that configure the device and basic device drivers, in particular:
  • CMSIS-compliant system and startup files required to setup the C run-time library, device clock, and memory interface.
  • Peripheral driver interfaces that provide software routines for physical device peripherals used by middleware stacks. Drivers may adhere to the CMSIS-Driver standard.
• One or more system view description files (SVD) describing the programmer's view of the device's peripherals.
• Flash programming algorithms for erasing and downloading code into on-chip Flash.
• Example projects that show the usage of the device and its peripherals.
• User code templates that can be used as a starting point for application development.

More information

The CMSIS-Pack web site contains more information on:

• how to create the required support files.
• how to create a device family pack.
• how to make this publicly known by using the software pack server from Keil.

An in-depth tutorial guides you through the necessary steps.
