Firmware:
We primarily work with Microchip PIC controllers. As such, the primary developlent system is the MPLABX IDE. Most of work is in assembly language due to the restrictions of the low and mid-range processors. However, some applications are coded in C. For these we use the XC8.

We try to work with as many free tools as possible. This sometimes limits the choice of supported devices. There are several other C environments available, and some code adjustment may be needed to use these.
