No joy with these.

Capital suggestion. Someone here mentioned using them about a year ago. I'll
compare and contrast. I'm leaning more towards the (>8 pins) PIC16HV540 or
PIC16C505 at the moment, though they are not ideal, after a pot or two
of coffee.  The Holtek ones seem to have a reasonable instruction set
(overflow flag, table lookup) and features (BOR, buzzer drive, 8 bit
timer) for a really low end device.

Best regards,
