The High Speed USART in the PIC16C66, PIC16C67, PIC16C76, and PIC16C77
     has been changed from a x4 clock to a x16 clock.  These devices have
     been checked on the test fixture that found the errata in the older
     devices.  The errata does not occur in the new devices.

     BTW, these new devices are 8K versions of the PIC16C63, PIC16C65A,
     PIC16C73A, and PIC16C74A.

Has anyone heard if the USART problems denoted in the
errata notes will be addressed in future PIC silicon?

Thanks for any info.
