How can I place variables in different banks?

|

TR 18037 standardized named address spaces, and MPC uses these to assist in placing variables in different banks.

There's more program data in my Intel Hex file than appears in the listing file. What is the extra data?

If you're working with MPC for a Microchip PIC, remember that the program words are longer than one byte. The extra size represents two bytes per instruction.

I use MPLAB-C. Can I upgrade to the latest version of MPC?

Byte Craft Limited developed MPC Code Development System as the first C compiler for Microchip PICmicros. MPLAB-C is a separate product developed by Microchip, who licensed the MPC source code from Byte Craft. The two products have been separately developed since the initial license.

I have an application developed with an old version. Will it compile properly with the latest version?

| | | | | | | | | |

Yes. If you have written your program according to our recommended practices in the product documentation, upgrading should be seamless. All Byte Craft Limited Code Development Systems have backward compatibility with previous language constructs.

Please note:

  • Improvements in the compiler can alter the generated code; this may impact your testing.
  • Device header files may change between versions. If you've written customized device header files, they may require some revision. Simply examine the stock headers that we ship with the product.

Something SPECIAL: put variables anywhere

| |

Byte Craft Limited's compilers support SPECIAL memory: user-declared memory blocks accessed (read and written) by software. The compiler manages allocation for SPECIAL memory similarly to system RAM and ROM. The result is a seamless integration of off-chip or on-chip memory resources into C language programs.

MPC version 2.0

We're pleased to announce the availability of MPC version 2.0. MPC is a high-performance software development tool for the Microchip PICmicro family of microcontrollers.

The long-awaited MPC features 24- and 32-bit integer and IEEE floating point math support. Full LOCAL and SPECIAL memory support make programming very intuitive and very efficient.

MPC - Branch Islands on the PIC16C5x

The 8 bit address limitation of the 16C5x program counter imposes a restriction on the starting address of functions which presents added complexity. For example, on the 16C54 you cannot call a function that starts anywhere between 0x100-0x1FF as the 9th bit of the address in the CALL instruction is always 0.
