BASCOM-AVR© is the original Windows BASIC COMPILER for the AVR familyIt is designed to run on XP/VISTA/WIN7 and WIN8'

This product description is updated in 2014. But we do not change it each time we update the software. In the online help you can find a list of all statements and functions.

Key Benefits

  • Structured BASIC with labels.
  • Structured programming with IF-THEN-ELSE-END IF, DO-LOOP, WHILE-WEND, SELECT- CASE.
  • Fast machine code instead of interpreted code.
  • Variables and labels can be as long as 32 characters.
  • Bit, Byte, Integer, Word, Long, Single, Double and String variables.
  • Large set of Trig Floating point functions.
  • Date & Time calculation functions.
  • Compiled programs work with all AVR microprocessors that have internal memory.
  • Statements are highly compatible with Microsoft’s VB/QB.
  • Special commands for LCD-displays , I2C chips and 1WIRE chips, PC keyboad, matrix keyboad, RC5 reception, software UART, SPI , graphical LCD, send IR RC5,RC6 or Sony code.
  • TCP/IP with W3100A/W5100/W5200/W5300 chips.
  • Built in AVR-DOS functions like MKDIR, CHDIR, DIR, OPEN, CLOSE, etc. Just as they work in  QB/VB !
  • Local variables, user functions, library support.
  • Integrated terminal emulator with download option..
  • Integrated simulator for testing.
  • Integrated ISP programmer (application note AVR910.ASM).
  • Integrated STK200 programmer and STK300 programmer. Also supported is the low cost Sample Electronics programmer. Can be built in 10 minutes! Many other programmers supported via the Universal Interface.
  • Many supported programmer like STK500, STK600, MKII, USBASP, JTAG , Arduino
  • Editor with statement highlighting.
  • Context sensitive help.
  • DEMO version compiles 4KB of binary code. Well suited for the ATmega48.
  • English an German Books available
  • AT mouse simulator, AT keyboard simulator, I2C Slave available as add on.
  • This product is developed in 1995 and is updated regularly.

And many other functions, statements and directives


To make a program takes just a few steps :

  • Write the program in BASIC
  • Compile it to fast machine binary code
  • Test the result with the integrated simulator(with additional hardware you can simulate the hardware too).
  • Program the chip with one of the integrated programmers.
    (hardware must be purchased separately)

This is a screen shot of the editor. You can work in normal mode or project mode.

At the left you find the Code Explorer. The Code explorer can show unused data in a different colour.

 

When the Code Explorer is visible, the editor supports Proper Indent and Indent drawing.

Indent lines can be a great visual help.

 

A tool tip with info can be shown by pressing SHIFT :

Here it is clear that BDIL is a byte variable, dimensioned in the module CAN-Elektor.bas

It will show info for constants, aliases, variables and functions.
