The argument about MChip vs Atmel v MPS430 v Motorola really comes down to a simple question- which uP vendor supports me 100%, always has components, and has 10+ years of logical code progression? There is only ONE vendor that meets all of these (my) needs, so I always try my best to stick with 'em. The fact that PICs consistently radiate less EMC is just a coincidental advantage, not a deciding factor. --Bob -- Note: Attachments must be sent to attach@engineer.cotse.net, and MAY delay replies to this message. 520-219-2363 _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
