Analog Devices has launched CodeFusion Studio 2.0, which is a significant upgrade to its open source embedded development platform. It’s been designed to simplify and accelerate the development of AI-enabled embedded systems, with its advanced hardware abstraction, seamless AI integration and powerful automation tools to streamline the journey from concept to deployment across ADI’s diverse processors and microcontrollers.
“The next era of embedded intelligence requires removing friction from AI development. CodeFusion Studio 2.0 transforms the developer experience by unifying fragmented AI workflows into a seamless process, empowering developers to leverage the full potential of ADI’s cutting-edge products with ease so they can focus on innovating and accelerating time to market,” said Rob Oshana, Senior Vice President of the Software and Digital Platforms group, ADI.
CodeFusion Studio 2.0 now supports complete AI workflows, enabling developers to bring their own models and deploy them efficiently across ADI’s processors and microcontrollers, from low-power edge devices to high-performance DSPs (digital signal processors). The latest platform, based on Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code, features a built-in model compatibility checker, performance profiling tools and optimization capabilities that are designed to ensure robust deployment and an accelerated time-to-market.
A new Zephyr-based modular framework enables runtime performance profiling for AI/ML workloads, offering layer-by-layer analysis and seamless integration with ADI’s heterogeneous platforms. This encapsulation of toolchains simplifies machine learning deployment and enhances system-level performance insights.
The updated CodeFusion Studio System Planner now supports multi-core applications and expanded device compatibility, while unified configuration tools reduce complexity across ADI’s hardware ecosystem. Developers benefit from integrated debugging capabilities, including Core Dump Analysis and GDB (GNU debugger) support, making troubleshooting faster and more intuitive.
