The KickStart Kit™ for the i.MX25 processor family provides you with all the tools you need to develop embedded applications right out of the box. Inside the box you will find all the necessary hardware and software allowing you to design, develop, integrate and test your applications, typically in the industrial and general embedded fields.

In addition the KickStart kit for Freescale i.MX25 contains a comprehensive suite of software development tools, including IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM 32K KickStart edition, IAR visualSTATE evaluation edition. IAR Embedded Workbench incorporates the IAR C/C++ Compiler, assembler, linker, librarian, text editor, project manager, and IAR C-SPY Debugger combined in an integrated development environment (IDE).

Finally, example projects and RTOS board support packages are also included in the KickStart kit. The IAR J-Link Lite for ARM JTAG/SWD hardware debug probe is also supplied in the kit. It connects via USB to the PC host running Windows and integrates seamlessly into IAR Embedded Workbench.
