#MPLAB XC8 VS XC16 INSTALL#
You can perform the following steps to download and install MPLAB-X and MPLAB-X C16 Compiler. First go to microchip and get the latest copy of MPLAB-X. Like I said these tools are very reliable and give excellent results. I use MPLAB-X IDE v1.51 and the MPLAB-X XC16 Compiler v1.10 to work with the PIC24F parts. Let’s get started.įirst we need to setup the environment on your computer. I have been working with the tools for many years now and am very impressed at how well they work. You can use real professional tools that work. It is also simple to program and Microchip provides the tools for free. This is the reason I chose this microcontroller to start with. It is also a 16 bit processor with some nice peripherals. This packaging makes it breadboard friendly for experimentation.
