Hello,
I'm new to micro controllers and I was wondering what is the most common PIC out there that has the most features.
I heard the PIC 68F84A is good but I just don't know.
Also say if I got a PIC with 18 leads and then later down the line I got a different one with 18 leads and has a different pin out, would I be able to use the old programmer to download the code to the new chip?
Finally can anyone point me in the direction to a store or website where I can buy the PIC as well as the hardware and compiler to get started? and for that matter what hardware do I need to program the chip?
Sorry for the questions I'm just really lost out because there seems to be so many PIC's.
Thanks
