• MISRA C enhanced code checker in the XA compiler, when you are concerned with the quality and maintainability of your C source code
• New compiler features for better code control and code optimizations
• Additional memory model "huge" to fit your application
• Seamless integration with 8051 compiler toolset; Easy migration of existing applications
• Programmable Data Analysis in XA debugger enables quick detection of errors in your data output
• File System Simulation in XA debugger allows the use of ANSI C calls to interact with the host computer I/O services
• CrossView Pro ROM monitor debugger offers additional Plug-and-Play support for new evaluation boards from FDI and Phytec
• Attractively priced special compiler bundle, consisting of C and C++/EC++ compiler, ROM monitor debugger and Simulator. All the tools you need in one package!

The Total XA Development Solution

• C/C++ Compiler and CrossView Pro debugger for the Philips XA
• Highly optimized XA C compiler package producing the most efficient code
  • Supports the Philips XA in its most powerful mode: Native mode operation
  • The XA Compiler is a complete new design. Not an upgraded 8051 compiler (like most other XA compilers on the market)!
  • ANSI-C & C-51 source compatible
  • Supports six different memory models! Tiny, Small, Medium, Compact, Large and Huge.
  • ISO C++/EC++ compiler available
  • In-line assembly and in-line expansion of user and predefined functions for efficiency; Many intrinsic functions to optimize code
  • Application mode selection: Support for optimal CPU mode (User mode, System mode) code generation and control
  • Complete ANSI C libraries in source, and XA tuned runtime support libraries
• Embedded Development Environment lets users access all tools through a common Windows interface and supports graphical configuration of CPU and memory areas (linker/locator)
• Powerful macro assembler and linker/locator generates ROMable, relocatable and reentrant code for optimum flexibility
• Software floating point libraries for single and double precision operation
• 8051 Assembly to XA code translator built in
• Recommended by Philips Semiconductors and used by their FAEs
• Output formats: IEEE-695, Intel HEX, S-Records

Support for all Philips XA derivatives

CrossView Pro XA Debugger

• Two XA debugger execution environments available:
  • High speed simulator debugger
  • Retargetable ROM monitor debugger interfaces directly to Evaluation Boards or target applications. ROM monitor program is royalty free and delivered in source
• View your source in C/C++, assembly, or mixed mode, where you have your high level language code intermixed with the corresponding assembly code
• Unlimited amount of code and data breakpoints supported
• Code/data coverage and profiling (performance analysis) in simulator
• Programmable data analysis enables quick detection of errors in your data output
• C and assembly level trace and stack tracing
• Bubble-Spy™ technology for easy and quick inspection of variable contents
• File System Simulation in debugger allows ANSI C calls to interact with the host computer I/O services
• Slick and modern user-interface, tailorable to your own preferences
