- Simplicity Studio v5 IDE
- Simplicity SDK Version 2024.12.2
- To install specific SDK version in Simplicity Studio 5, open Installation Manager via Help → Update Software. It is recommended to install and update all the items in the tab "Product Updates". In tab SDKs, find "Simplicity SDK - 32-bit and Wireless MCUs", click Add button on the right, and install Simplicity SDK 2024.12.2.
- The compatible GCC(The GNU Compiler Collection) version of SiSDK 2024.12.2 is 12.2.1 which is provided with Simplicity Studio. Please make sure to use the compatible toolchain while creating the examples of energy harvesting projects. If it's not present, open Installation Manager and install it in Toolchains tab.
