Simple and free program for programming a microprocessor such as the 8051 or a PIC?

Brian D asked:


I am wondering where I can get a simple program for programming an 8051 microcontroller. I would like to be able to code in Perl or C++ if possible but C or others is fine as well. Perhaps you could suggest several programs? Also, how about a simple programmer plugin, what are some good ones? Thanks, Brian

    I beleive C could be the best to that among the ones you have listed. But to have absolute control you may have the native codes in Assembly language.

    On the microchip website there is a free version of a compiler for their PIC products.

    Try Emily52′s evaluation version as a simulator of simple programs. I assume this is for educational purpose… I agree with previous answers. You would develope in C if you want it to be quick, but to get absolute control over what happens in the bit level, you must use some assembly. Many program that allow you to use C as a programming language will transform your code into assmebly code and then allow you to modify the assembly code.
