Introducing MemBrowse: A New Tool for Tracking Firmware Memory Usage

Revolutionizing Firmware Development

MemBrowse has emerged as a valuable resource for embedded software developers, allowing them to keep a close eye on the RAM and flash memory usage of their firmware throughout the continuous integration process. This tool seamlessly integrates with popular CI/CD systems like GitHub Actions and GitLab CI, enabling engineers to track memory footprint changes with each code submission.

One of the standout features of MemBrowse is its ability to provide a comprehensive history of memory usage over time, helping developers understand how much memory is available for additional features. The open-source command-line interface (CLI) simplifies the process by parsing the project’s ELF file and linker script, automatically generating reports that are uploaded to the MemBrowse Portal.

As an open-source project, MemBrowse is freely available, making it an excellent choice for developers looking to enhance their firmware development process without incurring additional costs.
