MPLAB Code Configurator

What is a programming environment? It is a simplified application that provides an interface for microcontroller (MCU) production programmers that allows a technician to easily load, program and verify software and avoid the complexities of full-featured Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). MPLAB Integrated Programming Environment (IPE) provides this type of solution. It is a simple interface that provides quick access to key production programming features. MPLAB IPE has a technician-level user interface for use on the manufacturing floor and provides production programming capabilities for all Microchip programmers and products supported by MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE). In production mode, technicians can program devices set by the engineer, view memory and power settings, read device ID, import hex files, environments and SQTP files, etc., as allowed by permission settings.

Troubleshooting your code's run-time behavior has never been easier. MPLAB® Data Visualizer is a free debugging tool that graphically displays run-time variables in an embedded application. Available as a plug-in for MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or a stand-alone debugging tool, it can receive data from various sources such as the Embedded Debugger Data Gateway Interface (DGI) and COM ports. You can also track your application's run-time behavior using a terminal or graph. To get started with visualizing data, check out the Curiosity Nano Development Platform and Xplained Pro Evaluation Kits. Capture data streamed from a running embedded target via serial port (CDC) or the Data Gateway Interface (DGI). Concurrently stream data and debug target code using MPLAB® X IDE. Decode data fields at runtime using the Data Stream Protocol format. Visualize the raw or decoded data in a graph as a time series or display the data in a terminal.
