Simplicity Studio is the unified development environment for all Silicon Labs technologies, SoCs, and modules. It provides you with access to the target device-specific web and SDK resources, software and hardware configuration tools, and an integrated development environment (IDE) featuring industry-standard code editors, compilers, and debuggers. With Simplicity Studio, you get a complete set of advanced value-add tools for network analysis and code-correlated energy profiling.
No matter your experience level, Simplicity Studio takes you through an optimized workflow, enabling quicker project progression, device configuration, and application optimization. Simplicity Studio 5 is built on Eclipse and C/C++ Development Tooling (CDT), adding robustness, improving performance, and allowing you to customize your development experience using plug-ins from the Eclipse Marketplace.
Simplicity Studio version 5 supports Silicon Labs Secure Vault, the most advanced security software suite with the highest PSA Certification Level 3. With Secure Vault, you can protect your IoT devices against escalating threats while conforming to the quickly evolving cyber-security regulations. The IDE also includes a UI engine for modern, responsive, web-like user interfaces.
