PIC C Compiler 5.0

PIC C Compiler by Custom Computer Services, Inc. (CCS) is an optimizing C toolchain and integrated development environment designed specifically for Microchip PIC microcontrollers. It supports 8-bit PIC10/12/16/18 devices and 16-bit PIC24 and dsPIC33 families, combining a standards-based C dialect with device-aware extensions and libraries to simplify firmware development.

Highlights:

• Optimized, PIC-tuned code generation that manages memory banking and paging automatically.
• Device-specific headers and ready-to-use drivers for UART/RS-232, I2C, SPI, PWM, timers, ADC, comparators, capture/compare, and USB on supported parts.
• Intuitive compiler directives (e.g., #fuses, #use delay, #use rs232, #int_xxx) to configure clocks, fuses, interrupts, and peripherals with minimal boilerplate.
• C-Aware IDE with code completion, call tips, peripheral setup wizards, project templates, and example code; supports inline assembly and mixed C/ASM projects.
• In-circuit debugging and programming with CCS hardware (ICD units), including breakpoints, watch windows, and live register/SFR views.
• Cooperative RTOS support via #use rtos, plus bootloader utilities and sample projects to accelerate bring-up.
• Available as separate compilers for specific device families (e.g., PCM, PCH, PCD) or as bundled suites (e.g., PCWHD); supports both IDE and command-line workflows.

Built for both professional and hobbyist embedded developers, PIC C Compiler shortens bring-up time, produces compact, efficient code, and streamlines the edit–build–debug cycle for PIC-based designs.
