I want to use some C algorithm in my 2550 and 4550. What is/are the best C compiler/s for they?
I have seen that most of then can be downloaded free but a limited version (2k of program and so on). Can i use gcc or other free? this free compiler has debugger or simulator? or can i use my Pickit 2 to debug it?
I prefer PIC C18 as mentioned above rather then CCS
I also guess that you are developing a USB application looking at the part numbers you have given. Microchip provide free USB code examples and libraries for C18 compiler
Just use mplab c18.
The student edition is free and has no code limitation. Only some limitations in optimizations.
It is a great compiler.
Try it, you will not regret.
Hope it helps.
