The MPLAB IDE software brings an ease of software
development previously unseen in the 8/16-bit micro-
controller market. The MPLAB IDE is a Windows
operating system-based application that contains:
• A single graphical interface to all debugging tools
• A full-featured editor with color-coded context
• A multiple project manager
• Customizable data windows with direct edit of
• High-level source code debugging
• Visual device initializer for easy register
• Mouse over variable inspection
• Drag and drop variables from source to watch
• Extensive on-line help
• Integration of select third party tools, such as
The MPLAB IDE allows you to:
• Edit your source files (either assembly or C)
• One touch assemble (or compile) and download
• Debug using:
MPLAB IDE supports multiple debugging tools in a
single development paradigm, from the cost-effective
simulators, through low-cost in-circuit debuggers, to
full-featured emulators. This eliminates the learning
curve when upgrading to tools with increased flexibility
and power.
