embOS
Segger offers one of the smallest complete ANSI "C" embedded graphics package and GUI available. Segger's RTOS (embOS) is part of Oki Semiconductor's World's first complete ARM-based ZigBee Developer's Kit.
J-Link
Segger is most noted for its JTAG / SWD emulator for ARM-based microcontrollers that have ARM7 / ARM9 / ARM11, Cortex M0 / M0+ / M1 / M3 / M4 / M7, M23, M33, Cortex R4 / R5, Cortex A5 / A7 / A8 / A9 / A12 / A15 / A17 cores, Renesas RX, and Microchip PIC32. This device is called the J-Link. It is also repackaged and sold as an OEM item by Analog Devices as the mIDASLink, Atmel as the SAM-ICE, Digi International as the Digi JTAG Link, and IAR Systems as the J-Link and the J-Link KS. This is the only JTAG emulator that can add Segger's patented Flash breakpoint software to a debugger to enable the setting of multiple breakpoints in Flash while running on an ARM device which is typically hindered by the limited availability of hardware breakpoints. For enhanced emulation features Segger offers a Trace Emulator, J-Trace that works with the ARM ETM interface and enables engineers to trace back their code execution.
