I don't mean to be rude about this, but you've asked a number of questions that have been answered in the past, both on this list and on the web in general. My suggestion is to do more research before asking. Questions about which SX you should choose aren't very good when you don't specify what you want to do with it. There are very few chips in the SX line, mainly dealing with the number of pins. The choice should be very obvious once you look at the datasheets. I did a Google search on "SX microcontroller" and the very first result is the website for the SX. When you ask questions like this it seems that you haven't done your homework and checked on basic information yourself. This list is an AMAZING resource...but everyone here is busy and has projects on the go. If I sent out an email to 2000 people asking what website to go to in order to see the BBC news, no one would respond. Now, once you've perused the datasheets you _will_ have much more relevant questions, and you'll more than likely get a relevant answer. You may also want to poke around on the PICList website (http://www.piclist.org) to learn more about inter-chip communications. James also runs a similar site for the SX chips (http://www.sxlist.org) that will help. Dig through that stuff and come back - you'll have better questions which will get better answers and it'll end up more useful for you. I don't mean to be callous, but you have to realize that you're asking 2000 people to give you knowledge for free. Showing that you care enough to try on your own will go a long ways to win them over. Asking them to give information that you're too lazy to Google for is sort of like saying "My time is more valuable than yours".
