I have been getting the Maxim Analog Design Guides and similar mailings from Maxim, the latest one has one about an 8051 compatible chip with an 8 channel muxed 12 bit ADC and two 8 bit "PWM DACs". It has flash, which I really like. The copy said that there is an eval kit available. I'm sticking with PICs for a while so I can learn them well for various parts of electronics, but I want to keep my options open and keep informed. Apparently the mailing caught the web maintainers off guard as the chips don't show up even with the search. My interest is piqued and I am curious if there is someone here that has sources in or near Maxim that is at liberty to explain more about it, such as availability dates and datasheets.
