Not really - I was wondering the same recently as I am currently using=20 the same part, and the PIC32MX440F256H also. I think: MX - no idea. The 460 part is to do with the amount of ram and possibly max clock speed. F is probably flash 512 is the flash memory The L at the end is for 100-pin (H for 64-pin) --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
