HI all, can you tell me what the dimensions of the SPDIP28 are and if there is a socket made for them, I can't find a sensible answer other than the pin pitch is 70 mils. Data sheet says the 16F886 is made in PDIP and SPDIP is not mentioned but the ones that Farnell has are PIC16F886-I/SP which is a shrunk plastic DIP with 70 mil pin spacing but the row can be a a number of different spacings and no one I can find is specific about it , it just mentions them as being a variation of a DIP. If they can be programmed the same as the 16F87x I will order them and wait and see what comes and then make an adapter board to a standard 28 pin dip so as to be able to work with them initially.
