6. Simplicity Configurator
Simplicity Configurator is part of Simplicity Studio and greatly simplifies EFM32, EFM8, and C8051 MCU peripheral initialization by pre-
senting peripherals and peripheral properties in a graphical user interface.
The majority of the initialization firmware can be generated by selecting peripherals and property values from combo boxes or entering
register values in text boxes. Some peripherals provide calculators, such as baud rate calculators, timer overflow rate calculators, and
SPI clock rate calculators, that can be used to automatically confirm the necessary reload register value to generate the specified clock
rate. Configurator also provides real-time validation of properties to ensure that a configuration is valid before downloading code to the
MCU.
