Stack Analysis in MCUXPRESSO IDE

[prasannanaik]

Hi,

I am using MCUXPESSO IDE to develop a Protection Relay with LPC54608J512BD208 microcontroller. I want to analyze the stack usage of the Firmware. 

Is there any feature in MCUXpresso through which i can find stack usage of different functions and interrupts.

Thanks & Regards,

Prasanna
