- CodeFusion Studio™ and ADI’s new Developer Portal are inaugural components of a new suite of developer-centric offerings, which unite cross-device, cross-market hardware, software and services
- Also included is the ADI Assure™ Trusted Edge Security Architecture, a universal security architecture to deliver more reliable, trustworthy capabilities across the stack
- Combined, the offerings provide a developer-centric experience that incorporates open-source configuration and profiling tools that are designed to enable faster time to market with enhanced security and reliability
Central to this launch is CodeFusion Studio™, a new, comprehensive embedded software development environment based on Microsoft’s Visual Studio code. This environment is ADI’s first-ever fully integrated suite of software and security solutions. CodeFusion Studio™ leverages a modern integrated development environment (IDE) and command-line interface, which incorporates open-source configuration and profiling tools to simplify development on heterogeneous processors and drive efficiencies.
CodeFusion Studio™ is available today for download on ADI’s new Developer Portal (developer.analog.com) – a comprehensive resource hub, offering extensive documentation, support, partnerships and community engagement. CodeFusion Studio™ also supports the ADI Assure™ Trusted Edge Security Architecture, the company’s universal hardware and software security foundation, which provides a simple and flexible way to natively implement security in Intelligent Edge devices. Together, CodeFusion Studio™, ADI Assure™ and the ADI Developer portal provide customers with the tools and resources they need to help bring products to market more quickly with enhanced security and reliability. By accelerating deployment times, customers can quickly capitalize on the full value of the Intelligent Edge, which can lead to better business decisions, improved customer satisfaction, enhanced insights and overall business growth.
“The complexity of embedded development at the edge is growing, demanding expertise in hardware, software, and security simultaneously,” said Gregory Bryant, president of Global Business Units at ADI. “We believe we are uniquely positioned to provide deep expertise in integration and vertical technologies across diverse markets, making innovation faster, easier and more cost-effective. That's why we are investing heavily in developing and launching these solutions, with plans to continue, enabling our customers to confidently innovate for the Intelligent Edge.
About CodeFusion Studio™: Built on open-source solutions, CodeFusion Studio™ supports a variety of hardware, including select ADI microcontrollers with more digital solutions to come in subsequent versions of the product. It encompasses an IDE, software development kits (SDK), as well as configuration and productivity tools. The experience was created specifically for developers to provide the abstractions they need to simplify development on heterogeneous processors and drive efficiencies. Through its strong partnerships with customers, ADI has identified that nearly half of the product development cycle is spent on debugging and deployment readiness. With the introduction of CodeFusion Studio™, ADI anticipates significantly reducing the time required for these tasks, leading to faster time-to-market and substantial cost savings.
About ADI Assure™: The Intelligent Edge continually evolves in features and functionality, , but this comes with increased cybersecurity exposure and new regulatory requirements. The ADI Assure™ brand represents ADI's commitment to integrating security natively at the Intelligent Edge. The ADI Assure™ Trusted Edge Security Architecture is the first pillar of this brand; it includes hardware security capabilities within select ADI hardware products, and software layers with application programming interfaces (APIs) available within Code Fusion Studio™. Initially supporting the MAX32690 microcontroller, these security APIs will remain consistent across an expanding range of ADI processing platforms, easing the migration of software, while providing flexibility and scalability to meet the resource requirements and the interoperability needs of the application.
By simplifying the implementation of typical security use cases and enabling security early in the design cycle, the ADI Assure™ Trusted Edge Security Architecture helps reduce customer time-to-market for new product designs and help meet the "secure-by-design" goals.
About ADI’s Developer Portal and commitment to open-source: The offerings above combine with ADI’s Developer Portal to provide developers with the resources they need including robust documentation, support, partnership and community. Additionally, ADI has a long history of supporting open-source projects and the company is expanding its involvement in the open-source community to create better, more accessible solutions that can easily integrate with third-party solutions. This will allow current and future customers to work at the level of abstraction they prefer and leverage advancements at the Intelligent Edge.
