In April 1985 the company was converted to
Keil Elektronik GmbH to market add-on products for the development tools provided by many of the silicon vendors. Keil implemented the first
C compiler designed from the ground-up specifically for the
8051 microcontroller. Keil provides a broad range of development tools like
ANSI C compiler,
macro assemblers,
debuggers and simulators,
linkers,
IDE, library managers,
real-time operating systems (currently
RTX5) and
evaluation boards for over 8,500 devices. In October 2005, Keil (Keil Elektronik GmbH in
Munich,
Germany, and Keil Software, Inc. in
Plano,
Texas) were acquired by
Arm. Since the merger with Arm, the company is still active in providing products and services. ==See also==
