    Converting Microchip PIC to alternate PIC

    Keith, where did you find the .50 cent price at 10k??? It's still too high (shooting for around .20/ea or less), but it's better. Yes, I have the source code and yes, it's in C. It's actually a very simple program. I've been working with the programmer personally. I'm not familiar with...

    Converting Microchip PIC to alternate PIC

    Also, unfortunately, Digi-Key offers no price break on quantities over 100 for this micro. Since production is going to be in the 10,000 range, we expect a discount on such a large quantity.

    Converting Microchip PIC to alternate PIC

    Thank you for your reply, Keith. I realize the code cannot be simply used in another micro, but what is the process to convert the code to be used in another micro? Or do I need to start over and write a completely new program depending on which micro we go with? That relates to another...

    Converting Microchip PIC to alternate PIC

    We are currently using a Microchip PIC12F509-I/SN on one of our products, but the lowest price we can find for this particular PIC is through Digi-Key. In order to find a cheaper solution, what is the method for transferring the code to an alternate (and less expensive) micro? We used the...

    "Open circuit" logic help

    Thank you Melone, but I need it built into the circuit. I received a reply from 'Viking' with instructions on how to accomplish this using an NPN transistor, which looks like it should work. I'm off to the lab to verify it.

    Electronics protection from condensation

    I design cockpit display electrical systems for military aircraft and in all cases, conformal coating is used to protect the components from moisture, but creating a truly moisture-proof situation is accomplished mechanically. It's an art, really. Gaskets or membranes or a combination of both...

    "Open circuit" logic help

    Howdy! I'm re-designing a circuit and am in need of a way for notification of an open circuit (via a piezo/transducer). Something to indicate the circuit is open. Since the circuit will be in an open state, the piezo must be powered elsewhere somehow. I can't use an ASIC, FPGA, etc. as it is...
