'''PIC''' microcontrollers are a relatively popular line of [[w:Reduced_instruction_set_computing|RISC]] microcontrollers from [[w:Microchip_Technology|Microchip Technology]]. Different toolchains are required to build code between the 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit data size lines. They are used in [[gp:ECE 2504 Introduction to Computer Engineering|ECE 2504 Introduction to Computer Engineering]] and [[gp:ECE 4534 Embedded System Design|ECE 4534 Embedded System Design]].
