From now until September 30, 2009, Microchip is offering a 20% discount on Microchip development tools for HI-TECH customers through [1] http://www.microchipdirect.com, and a 50% exchange discount to owners of HI-TECH compilers for non-Microchip products.  Please contact HI-TECH for details.

HI-TECH’s customers should continue to contact HI-TECH through the normal sales and support channels that existed prior to this acquisition.  In order to provide the best possible products for Microchip microcontrollers and digital signal controllers, the HI-TECH team will now focus its energies exclusively on Microchip-related products.  Existing support agreements for other products will be honored for the duration of those agreements.  For more information, please visit HI-TECH’s Web site at [2] http://www.htsoft.com or contact HI-TECH at [3] support@htsoft.com.

In addition to purchasing through the HI-TECH Web site, all HI-TECH compilers for Microchip’s PIC MCUs and dsPIC DSCs are also available from [1] http://www.microchipdirect.com.  Additionally, Microchip customers can now contact Microchip Technical Support at [5] http://support.microchip.com for any of their HI-TECH compiler support needs.
