Introduction

Microchip Studio is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for writing and debugging applications for AVR/Arm platforms. Currently, as a code writing environment, it supports the included AVR Assembler and any external AVRGCC/ARMGCC compiler in a complete IDE environment.

Using Microchip Studio as an IDE gives you several advantages:

1. 1.Editing and debugging in the same application window allows for faster error tracking.
2. 2.Breakpoints are saved and restored between sessions, even if editing the code in the meantime.
3. 3.Project item management is made convenient and portable.
