tiarmclang Compiler User Manual

The TI Arm Clang Compiler Tools, commonly referred to in this user guide as tiarmclang, support the development of software applications intended to run on an Arm processor.

The tiarmclang compiler toolchain currently supports the development of applications that run on Arm Cortex-M and Cortex-R series processors, including: Cortex-M0, Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M3, Cortex-M4, Cortex-M33, Cortex-R4, and Cortex-R5.

This section of the documentation provides a detailed description of each of the parts of the tiarmclang compiler toolchain. It provides guidance on how these tools can be used to develop Arm applications.
