A range of 19 new tools and application aids is developed by Microchip, which is used to expand development for the dsPIC® 16-bit Digital Signal Controller (DSC) architecture. These new tools and application aid will give the designers the sources they need, because it has a series of essential software development tools, high-level libraries, application designs and development boards.

The MPLABS Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is contained in this new product. The MPLAB In-Circuit Debugger 2 (ICD 2), also a device programmer, now supports the dsPIC DSC architecture. In fact, these tools are the platform for all of Microchip’s microcontrollers and DSCs.

Additional software tools include the MPLAB Visual Device Initializer (VDI), as well as three Real Time Operating Systems (RTOS) from CMX. In addition, there is a filter design package and its companion dsPICworks7’’’ Visual Algorithm Analyzer.

Several high-level and utility libraries are also provided by Microchip. With these libraries, the users are able to add powerful functionality to their application. The application has minimal learning curve-initial high-level libraries which contain the software modems, TCP/IP, and motor control. The free DSP, Math and Peripheral utility libraries are also offered by this company. The four new hard-ware development boards are ideal prototyping tools to develop and validate designs with Microchip’s dsPIC DSC architecture. The dsPICDEM"-’’ Starter Demonstration Board allows the user to easily validate a development idea using the dsPIC30F6012 (144KB Flosh). ThedsPIC30F2010-based (12 KB Flash) dsPICDEM 28-pin Starter Demonstration Board enables the user to validate a development tool setup using a 28-pin SDIP or SOIC dsPIC30F device. The dsPIC30F6014-based (144 KB Flash) dsPICDEM 1.1 General Purpose Development Board provides the application designer with o powerful development tool to become familiar with the dsPOOF 16-bit architecture. The dsPICDEM Connectivity Development Boards is also the unique features of dsPIC30F6014. A basic connectivity platform which is used to develop and evaluate various connecting solutions is provided by the dsPIC30F6014.
