On July 9, Microchip Technology rose 5.18% in regular trading, trading at $88.34/share, with turnover of $158 million.
On the news front, Microchip Technology announced on July 8 that it would make its compiler and embedded AI development tools entirely free and open to all users. The tools are designed to integrate with the VS Code ecosystem, aligning with mainstream engineering workflows and further lowering the barrier to deploying embedded AI solutions at scale.
The move represents a strategic shift in Microchip's developer ecosystem approach, potentially accelerating adoption of its microcontroller and embedded platforms among engineers building AI-enabled edge devices. The announcement comes amid broader positive momentum for the company, which earlier projected 65% growth in its data center business to approximately $500 million and secured a US export license for advanced semiconductor development in Armenia.
