After reading these forums for the past month, I've noticed there is never a mention of using the 16-bit PICs, only ever 8-bit versions. I was wondering why this is?
I've been using the 24H and 33F series almost exclusively. For my ACIM control the 33F MC series has a full H-bridge PWM controller with separate PFC PWM controller built in.
I could see using the smallest common denominator in a comercial product that is mass produced, but for hobby/one-off projects, I've always thought the bigger/better/faster controller would give more flexibility in the design process.
