RVDK
ARM RealView® Developer Kit (RVDK) for ST
dev e lopment environment for STR7 and STR9 microcontrollers
Features
The RVDK for ST includes:
■RealView ICE-ME (RVICE-ME), ARM’s in-
circuit debugger and programmer, featuring
USB host interface and industry standard
JTAG interface to the application board.
■RealView Debugger, ARM’s powerful,
debugging interface that provides a complete
range of run control and breakpoin t features.
■RealView C Compilation Tools (RVCT), ARM’s
C compiler, macro assembler and linker
offering a range of code size or speed of
execution optimizations. An optional C++
extension is available.
Description
The ARM RealView® Developer Kit for ST is a
complete developmen t and debugging
environment for designing applications for the
STR7 and STR9 families of ARM® core-based
microcontrollers. While the RealView Developer
Kit is tailored to work with ST products, it pro vides
the same compiler optimizations and debugging
features as the ARM RealView® Developer Suite
(RDS). RVDK for ST does not include tools with
trace capability to take advantage of the STR9's
Embedded Trace Macrocell™. For information
about tool kits that support the STR9 trace
capability, please refer to the data brief for eit her
the IAR Advanced Developer's Kit for STR91xF
(STR91X-DK/IAR), or the Raisonance
Professional Developer Kit for STR9
(STR9DK/RAIS).
RVDK ordering options are summarized in the
table below. Additional ordering codes for
compiler and license extensions and upgrades of
previous versions to support STR9 are provided
in the product selector at www.st.com/mcu.

2. RealView ICE Micro Edition hardware emulator can be purchased separately (STR-RVICE/ME).
3. The initial key license for STR7-RVDK/BAS and STR9-RVDK/BAS are limited to one year only.
4. C Compiler delivered with the Basic editions (STR9-RVDK/BAS and STR7-RVDK/BAS) has a maximum optimization at
level -O1 (highest is -O2, the lowest is -O0).
5. STR7-RVDK/BAS Basic edition has a download/single stepping speed restricted to 25% of maximum speed of STR79-
RVDK maximum JTAG download speed.

Ordering the RVDK
●STR79-RVDK – RVDK Full Edition for STR 7 and STR9. Includes RealView ICE-ME,
debugging software and C compilation tools (without C++ extension).
Note: The ordering code STR79-RVDK replaces the STR7-RVDK code that was previously used
to order the RVDK Full Edition for STR7.
●STR9-RVDK/BAS – RVDK Basic Edition for STR9 with 1-year license. Includes
RealView ICE-ME, debugging software and C compilation tools (without C++
extension).
●STR7-RVDK/BAS – RVDK Basic Edition for STR7 with 1-year license. Includes
RealView ICE-ME, debugging software and C compilation tools (without C++
extension).
●STR79-RVDK/CPP – Optional C++ extension for the RealView compilat ion tools.
●STR79-RVDK/UPG – Upgrade for RVDK Basic Edition (1-year license) to the RVDK
Full Edition (STR79-RVDK).
●STR-RVICE/ME – RealView ICE-ME in-circuit debugger programmer. Includes 45-day
trial version of the RealView debugging software and C compilation tools.
Upgrade ordering codes for RVDK for STR7 users:
●STR79-RVDK/9 – Upgrade RVDK for STR7 to RVDK for STR7/9.
●STR79-RVDKCPP/9 – Upgrade RVDK for STR7 with C++ extension to RVDK for
STR7/9 with C++ extens ion.
RVDK for ST will continue to be available from and supported by STMicroelectronics f or
ST's ARM7TDMI (STR7) and ARM966E (STR9) core-based MCUs. However this tool
package will not support ST microcontrollers that use future ARM cores. For support of
current and future ARM core-based MCUs, ARM has introduced a new tool package
RealView Microcontroller De velo pment Kit f or ARM based on the ARM compilation to ols and
the Keil uVision3 IDE.
