hi,
i am trying to find a compiler for my pic16f877 microcontroller. most of the ones i saw on the net come at a price. is it possible to find a free one?

RE: pic16f877

What type of compiler?
C compilers: CCS and HiTECH have demos that just limit
the code size to 2K.
SourceBoost offers C,C++,Pascal,Basic and Flow Chart.
All kinds of licences. http://www.sourceboost.com/Products/Products.html

Lite versions are  2k code limit. Basic is in bata and
suppose to be free. Standard licence for C is $70. with
no code size limit.

SDCC is the only free one I know.

Thanks madcow. one more question though, is it ok to use the picbasic language or it limits you in some way ie makes you less marketable ?
