The 2021 release includes these highlights:
•STMicroelectronics target support. Target support has been expanded to include the STM32 F103x and H7x devices. The F103x uses the Cortex-M3 core, with a maximum CPU speed of 72 MHz. Some of the H7x devices are dual core and are supported by Embed.
•CAN and Event Capture peripheral support for STMicroelectronics STM32 targets. Embed supports both BxCAN and FDCAN units for all supported STM32 targets.
Additionally, numerous diagrams have been added and modified to highlight new features in Embed. The complete list of new features is in the table below. Code Generation features are included in Embed and Embed Basic, but not Embed SE.
