Are there free development tools available?

Yes.  With the recent acquisition of Keil, ARM is now offering the new RealView Microcontroller Development Kit for ARM-Powered microcontrollers.  It contains full versions of an ARM assembler, compiler, and linker, as well as Keil's debugger and IDE.  It is recommended that students and universities download the free evaluation version of the tools.  There is a 16K byte object code limit but the tools are license free.  Because they contain full simulation models for peripherals around various microcontrollers, there's no need for hardware in some cases.

GNU tools are also freely available for compilation and simulation, and can be found on a number of websites. Please read about GNU Development Tools on our webpage.
