Implementation in Arduino IDE
This repository contains the integration of Infineon's XMC microcontrollers into the Arduino IDE. Supported boards by this repository are listed under 'Microcontroller Boards' in the following section or in the sidebar. Boards currently in development are not listed here at the moment.
In order to use the Infineon XMC microcontrollers by this repository and program them, you need SEGGER J-Link installed on your PC. Please follow this link SEGGER J-Link and install the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack for your respective operating system (OS). If you have already installed 'DAVE™ - Development Platform for XMC™ Microcontrollers', you might skip this step as you should have the respective drivers on your system.
Paste the following URL into the 'Additional Boards Manager URLs' input field under File > Preferences to add Infineon's microcontroller boards to the Arduino IDE.
