Easy and fast firmware development on 8-bit PIC MCUs
A new code development tool, MPLAB Code Configurator, has been introduced by Microchip Technology. Accelerating application development using 8-bit PIC microcontrollers, it offers custom application development to enhance the developers design experience. A user-friendly plug-in tool for the MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment, MPLAB Code Configurator generates drivers for controlling and driving the peripherals inside PIC microcontrollers, based on the settings and selections made in its user interface.
The MPLAB Code Configurator tool produces the peripheral starter code which is easy to migrate between similar peripherals and products. Producing an extremely easy-to-use and very powerful development platform, the generated driver functions can be used in many different application programs. With many new and powerful features, the Code Configurator simplifies development efforts, accelerating time to market for customers designing with 8-bit PIC microcontrollers.
Enabling customers to solve application development obstacles efficiently and at a minimal cost, the Code Configurator is an excellent general-purpose code development tool with a broad feature set and flexibility.
In order to help meet decreasing product design schedules and budgets, designers looking to get to market quickly can benefit from this easy-to-use code development solution.
The MPLAB Code Configurator is available today, via a free download from Microchip.
