Post by thread:[PIC]: Mechatroincs seminar; new "J" parts

techtrain.microchip.com/mechwib/General.aspx I attended the Mechatronics seminar at the Arrow office in Raleigh last week. Pretty basic stuff but that was spelled out in the registration overview. It was MASTERs lite for me since I didn't get to go out in July. :-) The Mechatronics dev board is a good mix of sensors and outputs. It came with the seminar fee which was less than the purchase price plus breakfast and lunch. So it cost me a day of time but got a chance to chat with the Microchip FAE's for this area. Just when I was getting caught up Microchip nomenclature they've started using the "J" in new part numbers. OK, so the windowed EPROM parts were really "JW" instead of just "J" but couldn't they pick a different letter?

Charles, what's J part ?

There's a bunch that end in J10 and J15.
