News
Microchip Technology Inc. has announced the shipment of its 500,000th development tool to Australia's Ness Security Products.

Microchip Technology Inc. has announced the shipment of its 500,000th development tool to Australia's Ness Security Products. Microchip development tools are software and hardware components that are used to design applications using Microchip devices.

The announcement follows Microchip's recent news that it shipped its five billionth PIC microcontroller to Chinese power-meter maker Jiangsu Linyang Electronics, meaning that there is one development tool for every 10,000 devices delivered worldwide.

"Shipping our 500,000th development tool is a remarkable achievement that clearly demonstrates our commitment to driving improvement and innovation," said Mitch Little, vice president of Worldwide Sales and Applications. "This milestone represents the continued success of our 8-bit PIC microcontrollers and analogue products, as well as overwhelming enthusiasm for our 16-bit family of dsPIC digital signal controllers (DSCs) and PIC24 microcontrollers. We are continuing to deliver the best valued tools and best technical support in the industry."

Applications for Microchip's devices in Australia and New Zealand span all sectors, including industrial, consumer, telecommunications and automotive. Examples of final products are security systems, exit and emergency lighting systems, electronic meters, washing machines, water heaters, auto-dialers, poker machines and remote keyless entry systems.
