CCS and TI Compiler free version

Matt Harding

Hello,

We are looking at using a Hercules microcontroller for a project and using CCS with the TI compiler. I began using the free license with a development board with onboard emulation, and things are going smoothly so far. So my question right now is...

Why should I pay for a license? It seems to me that we could use the free license with a custom PCBA using the XDS100 programmer to develop production code. What would be the advantages to using a paid license?

Thanks,

Matt

    Hello Matt,
    If you are happy with the XDS100, then there is no advantage for you. Some people find the XDS100 too slow for their needs and prefer a faster performing (external) debug probe. For that, they would need a paid license.

    Thanks
