The Essential Software and Hardware Development Tools
Microchip is committed to making your development as
easy and efficient as possible. This commitment is the
reason why Microchip develops its own software and
hardware tools. You have our full technical support
whether the issue is silicon or tools-related.
Our development tools suite provides value with many
free and low-cost tools. You can get started with the
MPLAB ICD 2 In-Circuit Debugger and the MPLAB IDE for
approximately US $160.
If you already own a PRO MATE ® II, the dsPIC30F family
is supported on it. If you are considering a new full-
featured programmer, the MPLAB PM3 is recommended.
MPLAB® Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
All dsPIC DSC tools operate effortlessly under the MPLAB IDE umbrella. The powerful and yet easy-to-use MPLAB IDE has all
of the advanced edit/build/debug features you would expect from a 32-bit debug environment. MPLAB IDE integrates not only
software, but all of Microchip’s hardware tools and many third party tools. Key features of MPLAB IDE:
Powerful Tools and Libraries to Ease Your Development
Microchip’s digital signal controllers come with an extensive array of development tools, application libraries (many of
which are free of charge), development boards and reference designs that allow high-performance embedded solutions to be
designed effortlessly and rapidly.
Powerful Project Manager handles
multiple projects and all file types
• Designed for Windows® XP , 2000 and Windows NT®
