Library/Precompiled Object Overview
H
Halt (MPLAB IDE v5.xx/v6.xx)
A stop of program execution. Executing Halt is the same as stopping at a breakpoint.
HEX Code
Executable instructions assembled or compiled from source code into hexadecimal
format code. HEX code is contained in a HEX file.
HEX File
An ASCII file containing hexadecimal addresses and values (HEX code) suitable for
programming a device.
High Level Language (Language Tools)
A language for writing programs that is of a higher level of abstraction from the
processor than assembly code. High level languages (such as C) employ a compiler to
translate statements into machine instructions that the target processor can execute.
I
ICD
In-Circuit Debugger. MPLAB ICD and MPLAB ICD 2 are Microchip’s in-circuit
debuggers for PIC16F87X and PIC18FXXXX devices, respectively. These ICDs work
with MPLAB IDE.
ICE
In-Circuit Emulator. MPLAB ICE 2000 is Microchip’s in-circuit emulator that works with
MPLAB IDE. PICMASTER (Obsolete product) and ICEPIC (Third Party product) are
other ICE devices.
IDE
Integrated Development Environment. A software application that is used for firmware
development. The MPLAB IDE integrates a project manager, an editor, language tools,
®
debug tools, programmers and an assortment of other tools within one Windows
application. A user developing an application can write code, compile, debug and test
an application without leaving the MPLAB IDE desktop.
Identifier
A function or variable name.
Import (MPLAB IDE v5.xx/v6.xx)
Bring data into the MPLAB IDE from an outside source, such as from a HEX file.
Initialized Data (Language Tools)
Data which is defined with an initial value. In C,
int myVar=5
defines a variable which will reside in an initialized data section.
Instructions (Language Tools)
A sequence of bits that tells a central processing unit to perform a particular operation
and can contain data to be used in the operation.
Instruction Set (Language Tools)
The collection of machine language instructions that a particular processor
understands.
Internal Linkage (Linkers)
