Flowcode is a very high level language programming system for PICmicro® microcontrollers based on flowcharts that will allow students with no programming experience to design highly functional robotics and electronics applications in minutes.
Flowcode is a powerful language that uses macros to facilitate the control of complex devices like stepper motors, 7-segment displays, and LCD displays. The use of macros allows students to control highly complex electronic devices without getting bogged down in understanding the programming involved.
Flowcode allows students to go further, faster.
- Drag and drop interface is used to design flow charts
- Full on-screen simulation of design, PICmicro microcontroller, and external components
- Macro capability allows complex designs to be built
- Compiles code for a range of 8, 18, 28 and 40 pin PICmicro microcontrollers
- Full suite of demonstration programs supplied which act as tutorials
- Uses international standard (ISO5807) flow chart symbols
- Compliant with IEC1131 PLC programming standard can be used for PLC programming skills
- Allows third party C code to be embedded as a macro
- Allows third party assembly code to be embedded as a macro
- Virtual systems (burglar alarms, car parks, lifts etc.) can be built for Flowcode using Visual Basic™
- Complementary PICmicro microcontroller development board available
