Microchip offers free MPLAB compilers, AI tools

MPLAB XC Pro Compilers and the MPLAB Machine Learning Development Suite from Microchip are now available at no cost. Unlimited installations give users free access to advanced optimization capabilities and integrated embedded machine learning workflows, whether working individually or as part of a development team.

Previously available through paid license tiers, the MPLAB XC Pro Compilers reduce code size, lower memory usage, improve execution speed, and generate architecture-optimized code for embedded applications. These capabilities support software development across Microchip’s 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit MCU and MPU portfolio.

The MPLAB Machine Learning Development Suite includes the Model Builder plug-in for MPLAB X IDE and Microsoft Visual Studio Code. It generates optimized AI and IoT sensor recognition code to support embedded machine learning development on resource-constrained devices.

MPLAB XC Compilers and the MPLAB Machine Learning Development Suite are now available as free, unrestricted-use downloads.
