Post by thread:Faster than a speeding PIC

Hello again (yet another question), Does anyone know if Microchip is planning to come out with faster PICs? What is the next step up from the Microchip PIC in terms of speed? Are there other programmable interfaces out there that are faster and still reasonably priced? Thanks for your help, Phil spam_OUTpslackTakeThisOuTlinex.com

If 2048 words ROM is ok for you, you can use a Scenix SX. If not, you can wait until Mchip brings out a PIC that can run 400MHz. (100MHz SX = 400MHz PIC) -- Friendly Regards /"\ \ / Tjaart van der Walt X ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN .....tjaartKILLspam@spam@wasp.co.za / \ AGAINST HTML MAIL |--------------------------------------------------| | WASP International | |R&D Engineer : GSM peripheral services development| |--------------------------------------------------| |SMS tjaartKILLspamsms.wasp.co.za (160 chars max)| | http://www.wasp.co.za/~tjaart/index.html | |Voice: +27-(0)11-622-8686 Fax: +27-(0)11-622-8973| | WGS-84 : 26¡10.52'S 28¡06.19'E | |--------------------------------------------------|
