Hi,

I have been away for ages from MCUs, tbh I feel I lost most of my skills these days. Anyway, is there a tool for PIC that can do what CubeMX does for STM32?

thanks

Hi Metal,
the tool is integrated into the MPLABXide suite...

check menu in the suite:

-->WINDOWS-->MPLAB CODE CONFIGURATOR v3

enjoy.
Manuel

here you go my friend

I think this one has to be downloaded first from tools->plugins

thank you

this is a very poor tool, PIC18F2550 doesn't seem to be supported in code configurator..

I also recommend MCC, I switched to it and without MCC I can no longer :D For PIC32 MHC recommend.

I just need to work with PIC18 :- )
seems I will stick with stm32

Given how cheap is now stm32f072 (ADC 12bit, DAC 12bit), ARM's the way ... PIC18's the past.

or you can see:

mean its depend what you need :)

I still vote for PIC - if I have to do a serious project :)

PIC - forever! ;D

In the last 5-6 years, I have been starting to encounter the use of the Micrоchip digital signal processors of the 33 series.
Replaced Motorola processors in 3phases inverters, induction cookers, and more.
The unpleasant thing is that they are locked up, we can not replace them and rewrite them, and we're forced to throw out appliances that have more life.
I think it makes sense again to pay attention to the PIC processors.

Hello. The problem with this mplab configurator, is that only support a few chips (all from different families), so, you have to select the specific one that has the adequate pin configuration, and copy the generated config file and adapt it to your actual pic. It is a little messy, because it has files calling files including files that call other files.... ad infinitum. But.... well, this is what we do, right? To learn how all the peoble who developed mplab, the libraries, the pic families, and the compilers (whatever you use) think, and encrypted all... LOL
Just a little patience, and good reading interpretation, and all will be ok.
Regards.

I want to confirm that the use of MCC gives a tremendous advantage in the development of new projects, but in MCC everything is not perfect yet. Often one and the same libraries work perfectly on one type of MC, and on the other do not work. Those. it is necessary to approach the MCC with the understanding that the MCC is also written by people and there may also be errors in it. Often I have to use my homemade libraries to get around the flaws of the MCC.

Pic Pic Pic, Agree.

X!

Helo, maybe you could try with CCS PIC with options menu ( File / New / Project Wizard )
Sometimes is good to achieve one good initial configuration and this not need PIC with new peripherals almost works with all also old PIC.

Have you tried this one

You have to be careful with that... one of the biggest problems I see with PICs is assuming that code for one is the same for another, and many times that's not the case.

They change the peripherals almost as often as they change chips!
