As the subject line, what is the least expensive micro with BOR/reset circuits and WDT? 8 pins is enough, 16 or so would be fine too.. an 8-bit A/D or an analog comparator would be worth an extra dime or so. Anything out there that is < $1.00 (US) a thousand or two at a time? I don't care about the 500K price, the quantities are not that large for this mind-numbingly simple job. - The MC68HC705KJ1 ~0.90/1K but no BOR and needs a clock resonator - The Z8E000 is about the same price, but perhaps less available.. - The ST6203 seems to be unobtainable - The 12C508A is about 80 cents, but requires external BOR, but has int. clock. - The ATtiny11 (supposedly 49 cents in large quantity) seems well > $1.00 and lacks the features needed.. - 8051 variants are more than 1.00 Thanks for any suggestions . =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Spehro Pefhany --"it's the network..."
