The Small Device C Compiler (SDCC) is a free-software, partially retargetable[1] C compiler for 8-bit microcontrollers. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License. The package also contains an assembler, linker, simulator and debugger. SDCC is a popular open-source C compiler for Intel 8051-compatible microcontrollers.[2][3] [4] In 2011 the compiler was downloaded on average more than 200 times per day.[5]
Supported hosts
Sources, documentation, and binaries are available for Linux (32-bit and 64-bit), macOS (PPC and 64-bit), and Windows (32-bit and 64-bit).
Supported targets
The following include binary compatible derivatives:
- Intel 8031, 8032, 8051, 8052; Maxim/Dallas DS80C390; C8051
- Motorola/Freescale/NXP 68HC08 and S08
- Padauk PDK14 and PDK15[6]
- Sharp SM83, the CPU found in the Nintendo Game Boy LR35902 SoC

- MOS Technology 6502, WDC 65C02.
Work in progress:
Obsolete:
- AVR microcontrollers used to be a supported target, but was made obsolete by avr-gcc in 2010 (SDCC 3.0.0).
