This Microchip document has both numbers on it (if you count the chip): http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/30555b.pdf Looks to me like Microchip just decided to drop the 'C'. The part has a crummy DAC (suitable for battery charging) and a 16-bit slope ADC. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany --"it's the network..."
