The S.A. suppliers don't have stoke and will only bring in a min quantity.
However they have requested a sample of a pic18f45k22, it will arrive in a week.
I need it in a dip package and the more i/o the better.
Have you tried applying for samples yourself? They send samples to me here in Australia.
Re sims, you buy them here in supermarkets for $2.
