FEATURED SOFTWARE TOOLS:
MPLAB® C18 (SW006011)
The MPLAB C18 compiler is a full-featured ANSI-compliant
C compiler for the PIC18 family of 8-bit MCUs. MPLAB
C18 is a fully integrated component of Microchip’s MPLAB
Integrated Development Environment (IDE), allowing source
level debugging with the MPLAB ICD 2 in-circuit debugger,
MPLAB REAL ICE™ emulator and MPLAB SIM simulator. A
FREE 60-day demo of the MPLAB C18 compiler is available
at: www.microchip.com/C18.

MPLAB® Visual Device Initializer (VDI)
MPLAB VDI graphically confi gures the microprocessor and
peripherals, and when complete, generates code usable
in assembly language or C programs. MPLAB VDI does
extensive error checking on assignments and settings, and
generates and error message if there are confl icts on any
resources. Download VDI with MBLAB IDE at:
