CoreChart is an icon-based development tool for the programming of microcontrollers. By grouping machine text language into icon graphics, it simplifies and reduces the error involved in what is otherwise a highly complex task, without compromising machine speed or efficiency.

As a true assembler, CoreChart produces code that is smaller and faster than that produced by the compiled programming languages typically used in product development. Since it's code can run on smaller less costly microcontroller chips, therefore CoreChart enables the development of smaller and more cost effective applications.

CoreChart has a user-friendly graphical interface. This enables shorter new product development cycles which in turn lower development costs and mean that more original products can be produced. Further, it makes microcontroller programming accessible to average users. Students and enthusiasts can quickly learn CoreChart and create innovative electronics/ICT applications.

CoreChart includes all the features of ezCoreChart, as ezCoreChart is built on top of CoreChart. ezCoreChart icons can be used seamlessly with CoreChart icons in the same program without any problems.  CoreChart starts in ezCoreChart mode.  Registered users can toggle between CoreChart and ezCoreChart mode by using a hotkey or Options menu.  Programs written in ezCoreChart can be opened and edited in CoreChart.

Features/Specifications

CoreChart supports programming of the PIC16F84A, PIC16F628A, PIC16F819, PIC16F877, PIC16F877A, PIC12F629, PIC12F675, PIC16F882, PIC16F886 and PIC16F887 from Microchip Technology Inc. (USA). For a full range of chips you can update CoreChart with CoreChart Professional. In combination with elabtronics' development hardware or other microcontroller programmers, CoreChart provides powerful functions and features that allow users to:

• develop programs by simply adding relevant icons (each icon corresponds to an assembly instruction)

• assemble the source files (.asm) from the icon instructions and program the chip in one go. .

One of the powerful features of CoreChart is the "Send to PIC" function under the Options menu. This function converts the CoreChart program into a source (.asm) file, assembles and compiles it into hex file and then brings up the "IC-Prog" program loaded with the corresponding hex file ready to be programmed to the microcontroller.

CoreChart runs under most of the Microsoft Windows Operating Systems (2000, NT, XP, Vista, windows 7).
