Background

Pic C Compiler -ccs Pcwhd V5.008- [patched] -

: Built-in Serial Profiler for real-time monitoring of data transmitted from the MCU to the PC.

Conclusion: CCS v5.008 excels in code density and runtime speed, particularly for peripheral-heavy code. PIC C Compiler -CCS PCWHD v5.008-

A study conducted in 2017 (still applicable for legacy comparisons) tested three compilers on a PIC18F4620: : Built-in Serial Profiler for real-time monitoring of

setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL); setup_adc_ports(AN0); set_adc_channel(0); lcd_init(); PIC C Compiler -CCS PCWHD v5.008-

Open examples\ex_blink.c . Compile with F9 . A .HEX file will be generated in the project folder.

CCS provides a migration tool ( ccs_migrate.exe ) in newer installations that can parse v5.008 projects and generate compatibility reports.
