Geehy has officially launched the G32R5xx SDK Software Development Kit, designed to provide a highly compatible software foundation for the G32R501 real-time MCU. This SDK simplifies software migration, accelerates development workflows, and enhances engineering efficiency, significantly reducing project cycles.
G32R501 Real-Time MCU
The G32R501 real-time MCU features an Arm® Cortex®-M52 dual-core architecture with a maximum operating frequency of 250MHz. Equipped with Arm Helium™ technology, it delivers substantial improvements in DSP and machine learning (ML) processing. Additionally, Geehy’s proprietary Zidian Mathematical Instruction Extension enhances mathematical computation efficiency while minimizing CPU access latency. Optimized for real-time control, signal acquisition, and computational processing, the G32R501 is engineered for demanding applications, including new energy systems, electric vehicles, industrial automation, and commercial power solutions.

Development Environment
1. Supported IDEs:
- Keil MDK-ARM V5.40 or later
- IAR EW for Arm 9.60.2 or later
- Eclipse (coming soon)
2. Debuggers:
- Geehy-Link (WinUSB), DAP Link (CMSIS-DAP V2 or later)
- ULINK Pro
- J-Link V12 (J-Link V7.94g or later)
3. Chip Support Installation
Before development, ensure the chip support package is installed:
1) MDK Environment
Install `package\Geehy.G32R5xx_DFP.x.x.x.pack`.
After installation, the G32R5xx series will be available in the MDK chip selection menu.
2) IAR Environment
Install `utilities\G32R5xx_AddOn\G32R5xx_AddOn_vx.x.x.exe`.
Run the installer as an administrator and select the appropriate installation path.
Once installed, the G32R5xx series will appear in the IAR chip selection list.
Simulation & Debugging Guide
Recommended Debugging Tools:
- Geehy-Link (WinUSB), DAP Link (CMSIS-DAP V2 or later)
- ULINK Pro
The G32R501 real-time MCU requires a valid DCS KEY for Flash access. Ensure the correct KEY value is written during debugging.
1. MDK Debugging Setup:
Copy the `r501.ini` file (provided in the examples) to the project directory.
Add the keil_dbg_tool command under the User tab (requires-Python >=3.7): ..\..\..\..\..\..\..\utilities\keil_dbg_tool\keil_dbg_tool -r –a #L -d .\r501_dbg.ini
Alternatively, modify the Set_SP_PC_Setup function in `r501.ini` and define `START_ADDR`.
Define unsigned int START_ADDR;
START_ADDR = 0x08000000;
FUNC void Set_SP_PC_Setup(void)
{
SP= _RDWORD(START_ADDR);
PC= _RDWORD(START_ADDR+4);
xPSR |= (1 << 24);
}
Under the Debug tab, include `r501.ini` and select the appropriate debugger.
2. IAR Debugging Setup:
- Under Debugger -> Extra Options, configure:
DCS KEY settings (if using the default key, skip this step)
--macro_param DCS_ZONE1_CSM0=0xFFFFFFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE1_CSM1=0xFFFFFFDC
--macro_param DCS_ZONE1_CSM2=0xFFFFFFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE1_CSM3=0xFFFFFFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE2_CSM0=0xFFFFFFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE2_CSM1=0xFFFEDFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE2_CSM2=0xFFFFFFFF
--macro_param DCS_ZONE2_CSM3=0xFFFFFFFF
Startup address definition
--macro_param _SET_PC_BOOTADDR=0x08000000
