HI-TECH PICC™ STD v9.60PL3 Compiler for the Microchip PICmicro® family

Now available is the HI-TECH C PRO for the PIC10/12/16 MCU Family ANSI C Compiler that comes with Omniscient Code Generation™. To see the performance differences between the HI-TECH C PRO and PICC STD, please view this document.

HI-TECH PICC™ STD is a high-performance C compiler for the Microchip PICmicro 10/12/14/16/17 series of microcontrollers.

HI-TECH PICC STD Compiler Features:

  • ANSI C - full featured and portable
  • Reliable - mature, field-proven technology
  • Multiple C optimization levels
  • An optimizing assembler
  • Full linker, with overlaying of local variables to minimize RAM usage
  • Comprehensive C library with all source code provided
  • Includes support for 24-bit and 32-bit IEEE floating point and 32-bit long data types
  • Mixed C and assembler programming
  • Unlimited number of source files
  • Listings showing generated assembler
  • Compatible - integrates into the MPLAB® IDE, MPLAB ICD2 and most 3rd-party development tools
  • Runs on multiple platforms: Windows (up to Vista64), Linux and Mac OS X

HI-TECH PICC STD compiler supports all currently available Microchip PIC10/12/14/16/17 series microcontrollers with additional support for new Microchip PICmicro devices available as they are released.

Integrated Development Environment

HI-TECH PICC STD can be run entirely from the Integrated Development Environment (HI-TIDE™ 3). This environment allows you to manage all of your PIC projects. You can compile, assemble and link your embedded application with a single step.

Optionally, the compiler may be run directly from the command line, allowing you to compile, assemble and link using one command. This enables the compiler to be integrated into third party development environments, such as Microchip's MPLAB IDE.
