Microchip Technology has unveiled its new MPLAB XC Unified Compiler Licenses, providing embedded developers with a streamlined, cost-effective solution to manage multiple compilers. This innovative licensing model supports the MPLAB XC8, XC16, XC-DSC, and XC32 C compilers, eliminating the complexity and overhead of managing separate licenses.
One License for All Compilers
The MPLAB XC Unified Compiler Licenses consolidate access to multiple compilers, addressing the financial strain and administrative burden often faced by development teams. By unifying licenses, Microchip enables greater flexibility, scalability, and ease of use, allowing engineers to focus on innovation rather than license management.
Flexible Licensing Options to Fit Every Team
Microchip’s unified licensing system offers multiple tiers to cater to varying development needs:
- Workstation License: Installable on up to three host machines for use by a single engineer.
- Network Server License: Installable on a server, accessible by any machine on the network (one user at a time).
- Subscription License: Similar to the Workstation License but with a convenient monthly renewal option.
- Multi-Seat Network License: Allows simultaneous access by multiple machines or users, ideal for larger teams.
Seamless Integration Across Development Platforms
The MPLAB XC Compilers integrate effortlessly with Microchip’s suite of development tools, including:
- MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
- MPLAB Xpress IDE
- MPLAB Integrated Programming Environment (IPE)
- MPLAB Extensions for VS Code®
The compilers support Linux®, macOS®, and Windows® operating systems, ensuring that designers can work on their preferred platforms for embedded development.
Streamlined Workflow and Increased Productivity
The unified licensing model empowers development teams to streamline their workflow by eliminating the need to juggle multiple license keys or separate software packages. This translates into faster project starts, easier collaboration, and more efficient use of resources.
