Software Maintenance, Upgrades
& User Licenses

Software maintenance keeps your CCS software running at peak performance levels for an entire year.

• Access to the newest Microchip devices within a family
• Compiler enhancements with new built-in functions, libraries and sample code

Flexible product configurations enable you to purchase only what you need now, and later add on additional family support and product features as you need them. Unlike compilers from other tool providers, all CCS compiler products offer the same high level of code optimization. Click here to learn what else the CCS IDE compilers can offer you.

CCS has developed a solution to eliminate the hidden costs of upgrading. Simply, pay the difference of your existing command line compiler and the desired IDE. This allows customers to build an integrated tool suite that suits their needs. View the table below to determine your cost to upgrade.

What is the policy?

• Additional compilers may be purchased as Additional User Licenses. Each license is good for one user or one computer at the same location.
• The original compiler purchased at full price MUST be on active maintenance OR be within the initial 30/60 days of free updates to allow for the purchase of one or more Additional User Licenses.
• The first time an Additional User License is purchased, maintenance is included equal to the duration of the original compiler download rights.
• Maintenance on the original compiler may be purchased at any time.
• Maintenance for additional users may be purchased to update the individual additional user. The original compiler is required to be on active maintenance.
