| - | The de-facto standard for annoying microcontroller design. Regardless, it's up there with the 8051 and AVR in popularity. It seems like you can get their more popular <$5 microcontrollers sampled. Also, of course, are their little eeprom memory chips, mid-freq RF chips and 'analog glue.' According to their [[http://sample.microchip.com/FAQ.aspx|FAQ]] (link is dead), you can get 3 of 4 different parts, twice a month, shipped via 3-day. | + | The de-facto standard for annoying microcontroller design.
