Develop operating software for Microchip microcontrollers and digital signal controllers in the specialized Integrated Development Environment with a set of tools for creating programs based on featured templates of from the ground up, editing code and processes, testing and applying them.
MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) can be used to develop and debug embedded programs Microchip’s microcontrollers and digital signal controllers. It provides a variety of features to help you quickly debug your projects and minimize development time. Its Data Visualizer gives you real-time streaming data from the hardware. You can also debug your programs using real-time I/O pin states.
v5.0 [Jul 20, 2018]
- New Project format – Projects created in or updated to v5.00 are not backward compatible! However, there is a plugin you can use to revert projects (Tools>Plugins>Available Plugins>Save As v4.xx Project).
MPLAB X IDE projects now support packs, found under \v5.00\packs. Packs contain versioned device information.
- Support for AVR devices using Atmel-ICE (EDBG) or PICkit 4 (UPDI) – Selected AVR devices supported only on stated tools.
- Support for Atmel-ICE (EDBG) – Atmel embedded debugger (EDBG) support using Atmel-ICE.
- MPLAB XC8 AVR support – Support for AVR devices in MPLAB XC8 v2.00.
- AVR Language tool support – Support for AVR GCC and AVRASM2.
- Support for some Dual Core Devices – Support added for some dual core (dsPIC33C) devices.
