25.3 Third Party Hardware/Software Tools and Application Libraries
Microchip is partnering with key third party tool manufacturers for the development of quality
hardware and software tools in support of the dsPIC30F Product Family. Microchip plans to offer
this initial set of tools and libraries, which will enable customers to rapidly develop their dsPIC30F
based application(s).
Microchip will expand this current list to provide our customers with additional value added ser-
vices, (i.e., repository of skilled/certified technical applications contacts, reference designs,
hardware and software developers).
Please refer to the Microchip web site (www.microchip.com) for the most current information
about third party support for the dsPIC30F Device Family.
The dsPIC30F software tools and libraries will include:
• Third Party C compilers
• Floating Point and Double Precision Math Library
• DSP Algorithm Library
• Digital Filter Design Software Utility
• Peripheral Driver Library
• CAN Library
• Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS)
• OSEK Operating Systems
• TCP/IP Protocol Stacks
• V.22/V.22bis and V.32 ITU Specifications
The dsPIC30F hardware development board tools include:
• General Purpose Development Board
• Motor Control Development System
• Connectivity Development Board
25.3.1 Third Party C Compilers
In addition to the Microchip MPLAB C30 C Compiler, the dsPIC30F will be supported by ANSI C
compilers developed by IAR, HI-TECH and Custom Computer Services (CCS).
The compilers will allow dsPIC application code to be written in high level C language, and then
be fully converted into machine object code for programming of the microcontroller. Each
compiler tool will provide several options for compiling, so the user can select those that will
maximize the efficiency of the generated code characteristics.
The multiple C compiler solutions will have different price targets and features, enabling the
customer to select the compiler best suited for their application requirements.
