FAQ
What is EmbedStudio?
EmbedStudio is a lightweight debugging and visualization platform for embedded firmware developers. It traces runtime variables from your microcontroller and turns live embedded data into real-time plots and dashboards, so you can understand system behavior without changing it.
How does EmbedStudio debug embedded firmware?
EmbedStudio reads symbol information from your firmware ELF file using DWARF debug data, then observes the corresponding variables directly from device memory over an SWD debug connection. This low-intrusion approach requires no printf logging or added instrumentation, so firmware timing and behavior stay intact.
Which microcontrollers are supported?
EmbedStudio targets ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers, including the STM32 family. Any MCU reachable over SWD with standard ELF/DWARF debug symbols fits the workflow.
Does EmbedStudio require firmware instrumentation?
No. EmbedStudio observes existing variables through the debug interface instead of injecting logging code. You do not need to modify your firmware or add intrusive instrumentation to trace runtime values.
What debugging interfaces are supported?
EmbedStudio uses SWD (Serial Wire Debug) to read live memory and variables from ARM Cortex-M targets, the same interface used by common in-circuit debuggers on STM32 hardware.
