ClearView Assembler
If you already know how to use an assembler, you’ll probably find our’s to be quite simple. However, if
you have little or no experience with assemblers, you should read the following pages before
attempting to use the assembler.

source code. Source code is the format that you’re accustomed to looking at; it contains
English-like labels, instructions, and data.
Before your source code can be used by a programmer, emulator, or other development
tool, it must be converted into hex code. Hex code is the "machine-readable" version of
source code; it contains instructions and data in the form of hexadecimal data, which can
be executed by the PIC.
An assembler is a piece of software that converts source code into hex code. For
instance, this line of source code:
It’s possible to write programs directly in hex code, using the individual machine codes
that make up each instruction. However, most people find it preferable to use an
assembler.
The TechTools assembler (CVASM16 ) is unique in its ability to accept two instruction
sets: our own 8051-like instruction set, and the original Microchip instruction set. Many
customers appreciate the TechTools instruction set, because it resembles other
processors. However, there are certainly customers who prefer the Microchip instructions.
If you plan to use source code in the Microchip format, please note that while our
assembler will accept their basic instructions, it will not accept various other aspects of
their source code. The syntax of numbers is sometimes different, and our assembler
does not recognize Microchip assembler directives and macros. If you plan to write a lot
of code in the Microchip format, then you may wish to use the Microchip assembler
(MPASM).
When you write programs for PIC microcontrollers, you will use a text editor to create
assembles into just two bytes of hex code:
