HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 v7.80 - legacy compiler^

HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 is more than a C compiler - it is a complete development system for C and assembler. With features like an integrated development environment†, assembler-free programming, and an intelligent optimizer, you can develop exceptionally tight and fast code with ease.

Freescale Semiconductor's M68HC05 family microcontrollers are low-power 8-bit devices which have fully static operation and come with a variety of on-board peripherals and internal memory configurations. The 68HC05 has a flat memory space and can address up to 64K.

HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 is an industrial-strength ANSI C compiler - not a subset implementation like some other compilers. HI-TECH produces fast, compact code taking full advantage of the 68HC05 direct addressing modes.

HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 Compiler Features:

    • ANSI C, supporting all standard data types
    • Unlimited number of source files
    • Multiple optimization levels
    • Comprehensive library with source code
    • Floating point support (IEEE 32-bit)
    • Mixed C and assembler programming
    • Unlimited function nesting and recursion
    • Listings showing generated assembler
    • Optimizing assembler
    • Full linker
    • Remote source-level debugger for low-cost in-target debugging included at no extra cost

Integrated Development Environment

HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 can be run entirely from the HI-TECH Professional Development environment†. This environment allows you to manage all of your 6805/68HC05 projects. You can compile, assemble and link your embedded application with a single step.

Optionally, the compiler may be run directly from the command line, allowing you to compile, assemble and link using one command.

Processors Supported

HI-TECH for 6805/68HC05 supports the Freescale Semiconductor 6805/68HC05 microcontroller family.


^Legacy compilers: Compilers which are no longer maintained. HI-TECH Priority Access is not available for legacy compilers. Printed manuals are available only while stocks last.

† The HI-TECH Professional Development environment (HPD™) is runnable from Windows (does not include Vista).
