Microchip Technology MPLAB® ICE 4 In-Circuit Emulator System

Microchip Technology MPLAB® ICE 4 In-Circuit Emulator System delivers feature-rich programming and debugging for PIC®, dsPIC®, AVR®, and SAM devices. The kit supports a flexible development experience combined with the power-efficient code while reducing the debug time.

The Microchip MPLAB ICE 4 In-Circuit Emulator System debugs and programs with the powerful and easy-to-use graphical user interface of the MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The system's wireless connectivity options enable isolation from environmental conditions and graphically monitor target applications for power consumption. Using powerful trace capabilities, debug time with real-time code profiling is diminished.
