Microchip C18
Microchip does not supply a compiler for the mid-range 16 series MCUs. It is assumed that any application developed in C will be run on an 18 series processor or above. This is because the mid-range devices have limited memory capacity, and many commercial C applications exceed this limit.
Nevertheless, it is well worth looking at C18, because having learned C on the 16 series, the reader may wish to consider the option of progressing to the 18 series for further work. The full list of features claimed for this compiler, as listed in the C18 User Guide (www.microchip.com) includes
• ANSI ‘89 compatibility.
• Integration with the MPLAB IDE for easy-to-use project management and source-level debugging.
• Generation of relocatable object ...
