MPASM allow full symbolic debugging from the
Microchip Universal Emulator System
(PICMASTER).
MPASM has the following features to assist in develop-
ing software for specific use applications.
• Provides translation of Assembler source code to 
object code for all Microchip microcontrollers.
• Macro assembly capability.
• Produces all the files (Object, Listing, Symbol, 
and special) required for symbolic debug with 
Microchip’s emulator systems.
• Supports Hex (default), Decimal and Octal 
source  and listing formats.
MPASM provides a rich directive language to support
programming of the PIC16/17. Directives are helpful in
making the development of your assemble source
code shorter and more maintainable.

Software Simulator (MPLAB-SIM)
 
The MPLAB-SIM Software Simulator allows code
development in a PC host environment. It allows the
user to simulate the PIC16/17 series microcontrollers
on an instruction level. On any given instruction, the
user may examine or modify any of the data areas or
provide external stimulus to any of the pins. The input/
output radix can be set by the user and the execution
can be performed in; single step, execute until break,
or in a trace mode.
MPLAB-SIM fully supports symbolic debugging using
MPLAB-C and MPASM. The Software Simulator offers
the low cost flexibility to develop and debug code out-
side of the laboratory environment making it an excel-
lent multi-project software development tool.
 
16.12
C Compiler (MPLAB-C)
 
The MPLAB-C Code Development System is a
complete ‘C’ compiler and integrated development
environment for Microchip’s PIC16/17 family of micro-
controllers. The compiler provides powerful integration
capabilities and ease of use not found with other
compilers.
For easier source level debugging, the compiler pro-
vides symbol information that is compatible with the
MPLAB IDE memory display (PICMASTER emulator
software versions 1.13 and later).

TECH-MP)
 
fuzzy
 
TECH-MP fuzzy logic development tool is avail-
able in two versions - a low cost introductory version,
MP Explorer, for designers to gain a comprehensive
working knowledge of fuzzy logic system design; and a
full-featured version, 
 
fuzzy
 
TECH-MP, edition for imple-
menting more complex systems.
Both versions include Microchip’s 
 
fuzzy
 
LAB
 
 
 demon-
stration board for hands-on experience with fuzzy logic
systems implementation.

MP-DriveWay
 
 
 – Application Code 
Generator
 
MP-DriveWay is an easy-to-use Windows-based Appli-
cation Code Generator. With MP-DriveWay you can
visually configure all the peripherals in a PIC16/17
device and, with a click of the mouse, generate all the
initialization and many functional code modules in C
language. The output is fully compatible with Micro-
chip’s MPLAB-C C compiler. The code produced is
highly modular and allows easy integration of your own
code. MP-DriveWay is intelligent enough to maintain
your code through subsequent code generation.

SEEVAL
 
 
 Evaluation and 
Programming System
 
The SEEVAL SEEPROM Designer’s Kit supports all
Microchip 2-wire and 3-wire Serial EEPROMs. The kit
includes everything necessary to read, write, erase or
program special features of any Microchip SEEPROM
product including Smart Serials
 
 
 and secure serials.
The Total Endurance
 
 
 Disk is included to aid in trade-
off analysis and reliability calculations. The total kit can
significantly reduce time-to-market and result in an
optimized system.
 
16.16
TrueGauge
 
 
 Intelligent Battery 
Management
 
The TrueGauge development tool supports system
development with the MTA11200B TrueGauge Intelli-
gent Battery Management IC. System design verifica-
tion can be accomplished before hardware prototypes
are built. User interface is graphically-oriented and
measured data can be saved in a file for exporting to
Microsoft Excel.
