Brand new features

Here are some of the new features available in Flowcode 8.0. Please click on a feature to learn more about it.



Component changes and additions

CAL components such as ADC, I2C, PWM, SPI and UART are now free to allow for more user-based component creation and library generation.

High-level components created by Matrix are still licensed under the various component feature packs.


We also have a large selection of component, CAL and FCD updates.


New components

Some of the new components include:


Component improvements

  • CAL components are more usable and stand alone, injector, scope and console functionality is now built in making it much easier to build into your own components
  • Bitmap Drawer component - more bitmap file formats (Mono, 16-Colour, 256-Colour, 24-bit) and up to ten bitmaps per component
  • Servo controller 16-bit mode
  • PWM Frequency based Period and Prescaler calculator
