H8/300 C Cross Compiler

H8/300 C 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.

The Hitachi H8 microcontroller family offers a large, flat address space (64K for H8/300, megabytes for H8/300H) and a RISC-like set of CPU registers. The HI-TECH C compiler takes advantage of these characteristics to produce compact, fast code.

The H8 has a conventional downward growing stack, and a single memory address space, enabling the compiler to implement fully recursive and re-entrant functions.

Compiler

Features of the compiler include:

ANSI C, supporting all standard data types
Unlimited number of source files
Multiple optimization levels
Comprehensive library with source code
Floating point support (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

Environment

H80/300 C can be run entirely from the HI-TECH Professional Development environment†. This environment allows you to manage all of your H8/300 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

The H8/300 C compiler for the H8/300 and H8/300H microcontroller families, supporting all devices such as H8/300, H8/300L, H8/300H and H8S series devices.

† The HI-TECH Professional Development environment (HPD) is not available under UNIX. The compiler is supplied on CD-ROM, with a Quick Start Guide. The User's Guide is provided on the CD-ROM in Acrobat and HTML formats. If you require a printed manual, it can be ordered at the same time as the compiler
