Hi all, My question pertains to the use of other microcontrollers. Why is the MicroChip PIC controller so much better than other controllers like ATMEL or ZILOG? Is there an application that would be better suited to one of the other manufacturers? I am kind of new to the microcontroller world and I see that there are quite a few manufacturers. On what grounds do these companies compete? I really just want verification that I have gotten lucky and chosen the best controller out there. Thanks in advance, Troy Powledge
