Hello, >the 4th quarter 1999 line card now and it lists the following 18 pin >devices as having USART: PIC16F627 & PIC16F628 HOWEVER it also states that >you should contact Microchip for availablity dates. Sorry, I dont know if PIC16F627 and PIC16F628 can be found on http://www.ied.pios.com/ (prices between US$4 and US$5) and on http://www.future-active.com/ (more "costier").
