The Microchip HV5308 I posted about shortly after the original request=20
will do what I need as a price that's viable.

One small niggle with it is that the serial inputs on it are CMOS=20
thresholds, so I'll need to use a translator from the PIC / AVR.

Thanks to everyone for their input.  There's lots of great info here.  :)
