It isn't often that I find datasheets written in a way that is easy to=20
understand and with all the information present. After having=20
experimented with the dsPic line for a while I came to hate whomever=20
wrote the documentation for them. I often felt like I was reading cliff=20
note versions and had to hunt down app notes and other documents just to=20
use certain functions and even then was left scratching my head a lot of=20
the time.

I needed some really low cost pic chips with just a few peripherals on=20
board and and a friend had some 16f1823 chips, I downloaded the data=20
sheet and  am I impressed. Whomever wrote this data sheet needs to be in=20
charge of writing other data sheets for microchip products. They have=20
assembly code for all the functions, tables that make sense and details=20
explained very clearly.  It was a pleasure to read rather than a chore.=20
I really wish companies would review the quality of their datasheets=20
more often because quality control on a lot of them is severely=20
lacking.  Check out the pic16f1823 data sheet and tell me if it isn't=20
one of the best you have seen.

Have fun !
