MikroElektronika has signed a formal agreement with FTDI Chip to create mikroC, mikroBasic and mikro-Pascal compilers for the latter company’s FT90X 32-bit microcontroller offering. The FT90X’s proprietary RISC architecture garners performance benchmarks beyond 2,93 DMIPS/MHz, with true zero wait-states operation up to 100 MHz frequencies, as well as capacious memory and an array of advanced connectivity resources.
The two companies previously teamed up in order to bring a graphic development software solution to market, based on Visual TFT, which supported the FT800 embedded video engine (EVE) graphic controller. This allowed more rapid implementation of next generation human machine interfaces (HMIs) via EVE’s innovative object-oriented approach and Visual TFT’s simple to use drag-and-drop functionality.
Through the new partnership, MikroElektronika will build an entire FT90X ecosystem, including not just the compiler products but also development boards, useful examples for click boards and Visual TFT software support.
