Elevate Your Coding Experience with Our MPLAB AI Coding Assistant
MPLAB AI Coding Assistant is a free, customized version of the Continue extension available on the Microsoft® Visual Studio® Code Marketplace that is tailored specifically for developers working with Microchip products. It offers code suggestions with the AI autocomplete feature, automates mundane tasks and provides access to Microchip data sheets within the editor. A Microchip-trained virtual assistant chatbot is also available to answer your coding questions to elevate your coding experience and accelerate your development.
Cross Over to an MPU
If your design outgrows the capabilities of our MCUs, you may want to cross over to our 32-bit microprocessors (MPUs), which support higher processing power and memory storage. Our MPUs are supported in the same toolset and MPLAB Harmony software framework as many of our MCUs, which enables an easy transition. Access the full benefits of an MPU by using the Linux® operating system.
