MPLAB® Harmony 3 Configurator

MPLAB® Harmony 3 is an extension of the MPLAB® ecosystem for creating embedded firmware solutions for Microchip 32-bit SAM and PIC® microcontroller and microprocessor devices. Refer to the following links for more information.

This repository contains the implementation of the MPLAB® Harmony 3 Configurator (MHC) tool. The MHC is an easy to use development tool with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that simplifies device setup, library selection, and configuration, and application development. The MHC is available as a plugin that directly integrates with the MPLAB® X IDE or as a separate Java executable for standalone use with other development environments.

MHC includes a downloader tool that reads an online catalog of MPLAB Harmony 3 library packages so that the developers can select and download the libraries in which the they are interested. The configurator functionality provides a convenient, but powerful, development tool for choosing library components from downloaded packages and configuring them for the developer’s application. And, the built-in code generator produces the libraries and application starter code (usually in source form), based on the options chosen.
