Description

MPLAB Connect Configurator, previously known as ProTouch2, serves as a user-friendly configuration and programming tool designed for our latest USB hubs, along with Ethernet and PCIe® products. With an engaging Graphical User Interface (GUI), this tool allows you to effortlessly generate configuration files in both binary (.cfg and .bin) and JSON (.json) formats, which hold the necessary data for programming your target device. The features are organized into three distinct categories: basic, advanced, and special, providing a variety of programming options that enhance your design customization. You can configure both upstream and downstream ports, manage battery charging settings, and enable USB control for I2C, SPI, or digital I/O on your SmartHub™ IC or USB-to-Ethernet bridge. Additionally, it allows you to specify the unique MAC address for your USB-to-Ethernet bridge and manage the power consumption levels of your device. Overall, MPLAB Connect Configurator streamlines the process of setting up and programming devices for optimal performance.

Description

Metalware empowers engineers to swiftly grasp hardware specifications and develop software by synthesizing information from datasheets and SDKs. We produce an Intermediate Representation (IR), a structured file derived from documents that detail a programmable component, which includes a register map for Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) creation and device metadata for the compiler's reference to device-specific details. This IR facilitates the execution of the intended Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) or SDK's API by pinpointing registers and their configurations, whether they are arranged contiguously or supported by a FIFO structure, based on the accompanying device metadata. In addition, it streamlines the process by automatically creating implementation code, including HAL and header files, tailored for your selected RTOS or SDK. Consequently, this efficiency not only accelerates development but also enhances the accuracy of the code generated.
