Greetings; I have been following the discussion of security problems w/ the 16C84 with great interest! We are currently implementing a design onto a 16C84 because of it's 'security'. What I have been reading about the lack of real security is rather terrifying, as our project dare have such a lack of security! The product is not a 'low-cost' unit, so a higher priced PIC would be acceptable if it really has greater security. We are stopping development immediately using the 16C84 unit! Does anyone know of any other PICs that are MUCH more secure??? Your help will be greatly appreciated! -- Carson S.
