It even includes the Visual Assist X productivity component which provides advanced Intellisense and Content Assist functionality. Do anyone how to run Atmel studio 6 on Mac OS x 10.9.2?:shock: I need some guidance.Thanks. No, Atmel Studio won't run on Mac. I have it working 'fine' in a Virtual Box VM, though. Microchip is adding AVR suport to their MPLAB-X IDE, and that DOES run on Macs.

Introduction

This page demonstrates how different Atmel development components fit together to offer a complete embedded development workflow, all managed from the Atmel Studio Integrated Development Platform (IDP).

This page focuses on using Atmel Studio and the ASF as a stand alone tool. A separate page demonstrates how to use Atmel START to generate an Atmel Studio project.


Step #1 – Installing Atmel Studio

Workflow steps:
  1. Download and install the Atmel Studio Integrated Development Platform (IDP).

Step #2 – Obtaining Plug-ins and Extensions from the Gallery

Atmel Studio is shipped with a copy of the Atmel Software Framework (ASF), and will check the online Atmel Gallery for updated versions each time it is started. The (ASF) includes FreeRTOS, and numerous FreeRTOS example projects.

It is also possible to access the Gallery manually to both check for updates to already installed components, and to select new components to install.

Workflow steps continued:
  1. Start the Atmel Studio IDE
  2. Select the “Tools->Extensions and Updates…” menu item to open the Extension Manager window. The extension manager links directly to the online gallery, and will inform you if there are updates for components that are already installed.
  3. Use the Extension Manager’s search box to search for, then select and install the ‘FreeRTOS Viewer’ extension.

Step #3 – Automatic Board Detection

Atmel Studio will automatically detect Xplained Pro hardware. Other Atmel development hardware can be selected manually. Workflow steps continued:
  1. Connect an Atmel Xplained Pro board. A single USB cable is all that is required. Atmel Studio will automatically display a page that includes links that are specific to the connected hardware.

Step #4 – Viewing and Importing Target Specific Example Projects

The ASF contains a huge quantity of software, but the complexity is managed by intelligent filtering. Workflow steps continued:
  1. The first link on the product specific page (that opened when an Xplained pro board was connected as already described) is “New ASF Example Project…”. Click the link to open the New ASF Example Project from ASF window.
  2. The New Example Project from ASF window will display the subset of ASF example projects that are specific to the connected hardware. The list of examples will often include FreeRTOS examples. The projects can be further organised by Kit, Category, Technology or Addon.

    Select a project of interest and click OK. The project, including all of its dependencies, will be imported into Atmel Studio.

Step #5 – Advanced Navigation, Editing, Building and Debugging

Atmel Studio brings all the building, editing and debugging capabilities of Visual Studio to Atmel microcontroller development. It even includes the Visual Assist X productivity component which provides advanced Intellisense and Content Assist functionality. Workflow steps continued:
  1. Experiment with the example project imported in the previous step. In particular note:
    • The ‘conf’ directory, in which configuration files for all the components used in the example are placed.
    • The advanced navigation and editing features provided by the Visual Studio environment, enhanced by the Visual Assist X component.
  2. Select the Build->Build Solution menu item to build the example (or just press F7).
  3. Select the Debug->Start Debugging and Break menu item to program the microcontroller flash memory, start a debug session, and break on entry to the main() function.
  4. Experiment with the debug controls and windows, including the FreeRTOS viewer if you selected a FreeRTOS example project.

    Example ASF projects use the -O1 optimisation setting by default. An easier debugging experience can be obtained by rebuilding the project with optimisation turned off.

Step #6 – The ASF Wizard – Including Additional ASF Drivers, Components and Services

ASF software is categorised as peripheral drivers, components and services. Peripheral drivers are drivers for on chip peripherals. Components are drivers for off chip components such as SD cards, flash chips, displays, etc. Services are more application orientated drivers, such as USB class drivers.

All the ASF software is accessible using the ASF wizard.

Workflow steps continued:
  1. End the debug session, if it is still in progress.
  2. Select the ASF->ASF Wizard menu item to open the ASF Wizard window.

    The right side of the ASF Wizard window will show the ASF software that is already included in the example project, along with the software’s configuration where applicable. The left side of the ASF Wizard window will show the ASF software that is available to be added to the project. Only software applicable to the connected hardware is shown.

  3. Select an ASF software item from the window on the left side. A brief description of the selected item, and a link to the item’s quick start guide will be displayed at the bottom of the ASF Wizard window. The quick start guide provides information on using the software item, and links to the software’s API documentation.
  4. Use the right arrow button to have Atmel Studio move the selected item to the right side. The ASF wizard will also automatically move any additional software on which the selected item is dependent – if any.
  5. ASF items selected for inclusion in the project (those shown in the right side of the Wizard’s window) can be configured directly in the ASF wizard. Configuration options are presented as drop down lists. Expand the selected item to see if any configuration options exist. If so, configure the option as desired, then click the Apply button. The ASF wizard will prepare your example project to use the newly selected components by:
    • Copying the necessary source files into the project.
    • Adding the necessary configuration file into the ‘config’ directory.
    • Update the project’s include path as necessary.
