Introduction to MPLAB IDE

What is IDE?
•  Integrated
Development HighLevel Language
Environment (IDE) (C++, BASIC, etc.)

•  Collection of
integrated programs Assembly Language
(PIC, Intel, etc.)
(tools) to write
assembly programs,
Machine Language
assemble, execute, (Binary format)

and debug programs.


•  Microchip IDE is
called MPLAB IDE
Writing Assembly Programs /
and IDE Structure
M:/Microchip/Project1/proj_name.mcp
Create a Project M:/Microchip/Project2/proj_name.mcp

……...etc.
Analyze the problem
(understand it and
Source Code containing mnemonics:
simplify if possible)
Build M:/Microchip/Project1/code_name.asm
Editing

……...etc.
*.asm File

*.lst (list) File *.err (Error) File

*.O (Object) File

Known as MPLAB SIM


Simulation Uses a simulator on the PC to
execute the program Execute and debug
