Hello,

is it true that the pic 16c73 OTP has a small area of ROM (64 words?)
that can be overblown after the chip has been programmed? When we
were looking around to choose which microcontroller to use in our
application (this was months ago), we were told by the consultants
advising us that this overblow area exists and is usually used for
serial numbers or maybe some constants which aren't defined when
the pic is programmed. Of course, something as useful as this has
been fully exploited by our design spec,  but I've not managed to
find any confirmation of this overblow rom in any of my microchip
books...

regards,
