Great Cow BASIC

Great Cow BASIC is an open-source BASIC compiler for Microchip PIC microcontrollers.
Great Cow BASIC is an open-source BASIC compiler for Microchip PIC microcontrollers that has a clear andeasy to understand syntax which resembles that of QBASIC/FreeBASIC.

Great Cow BASIC compiles for most 10/12/16/18 series PIC controllers, and has built-in routines for LCD displays, RS232, delays, 16-bit integers, and many other features.

To compile a file, drag and drop it onto compile.bat. If compilation is successful, a .asm and .hex file will be produced. Download the .hex to your PIC, and you're set to go!

Main features of Great Cow BASIC:

  • Common BASIC commands such as "if", "goto", and "for"
  • Support for most 8-bit PIC microcontrollers
  • Standard 2x16 LCD routines
  • Complex condition checking: equal, less than, AND, etc - everything that is expected from a good BASIC compiler.
  • Routines for on-chip A/D, PWM, SPI and Timers
  • RS232 communications - rates between 300 and 19200 bps with user configurable parity, start and stop bits.
  • Arrays
  • Subroutines and Functions
  • Lookup tables
  • Automatic data bank selection
  • Delays and PWM settings are recalculated for different clock speeds
  • 16 bit variables, complete with multiply and divide
  • SELECT CASE
  • Keypad routines
