Post by thread:PIC's across the world

Hi, I'm from South Africa and I'm studying for a degree in Electronic Engineering. In Pretoria we don't have that many suppliers of electronic components and I was wondering how much a PIC costs anywhere else in the world. I pay 40 Rands for a 16F84 here, and with the current exchange rate I think would be equal to about 5 or 6 Dollars. Ciao, Graham.

Here in Australia we can pay between $10 and $14 for a 16F84 in one off quantities Regards Stuart Graham wrote: {Quote hidden}> Hi, > > I'm from South Africa and I'm studying for a degree in Electronic > Engineering.

Best single unti price I've found in Australia for PIC16F84 is as follows.. -04P....$6 AUD +22% tax = $7-32 -10P....$6-49 AUD +22% tax = $7-92 Most "hobby" suppliers are charging $12-16 each for the -04P..... It's by hunting around you find the cheaper prices. Des bromilow Brisbane OZ PS..

The place is Arrow (http://www.arrowaustralia.com.au ) and I don't know about anything other than the F84's I asked them about. Normally they have a minimum order rule of $100 (total), but they will allow smaller orders of development items such as the F84. Actually, now I think about it... they did ask if I needed EEprom as well, so I guess they must have access tot he entire range..... I f Brisbane is anything to go by, they had the F84-04P and F84-10P in stock, and it was a local call to the sales office. Arrow used to be Zatek and Valtek(?) and have quite good linecards.

Hi! This is good site in UK where I buy PICs: http://www.crownhill.co.uk/phome.htm And some examples(prices are in sterlings): 12c508A - 0,63 12c509A - 0,63 16c54 - 2,00 16c55XT/P - 1,85 16c58A-04/P - 2,05 16c71-04/P - 2,45 16F84-04/P - 2,00 24LC16 - 1,00 24LC56 - 1,50 MAX232 - 1,35 They have PIC16f84 integrated on SmartCard with additional memory, what I find very handy. regards Neven ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1

In quantities of 100+ the price goes down to about $4.5. But when I try to buy one thru the _electronics-store_ here it'll cost me about $17 (30 guilders) ! Greetz, Rudy Wieser

Here in Portugal, where I live, I buy one 16F84, 10MHz crop, for about US$6, US$6.5. I don't know the prices for large quantities...

Hi, here in Hungary it costs about $4 + VAT = $5 in total.

Then I guess you local shop makes a hughe profit! I buy 16f84's at 10-15 guilders from the local electronics shop (Heck in Amersfoort, not exactly known as cheap) or mailorder from Conrad (Rotterdam). Wouter.

In Russia the electronic components Microchip are sold under such prices: 12C508A-04\p - 1.05$ 16F84A-04\p - 4.18$ The price is indicated for Moscow, at purchasing one chip. The discounts at purchasing 100 chips - from 0.15 up to 1 $ depending on a type of a chip. In other large cities the cost approximately same. In Russia also there are analogs of electronic components Microchip of local development. For example chip KR1876WE1 has such possibilities: - 52 commands of the processor - ROM - 1024*16 bytes EEPROM - RAM - 128*8 bytes - Flash RAM 64*8 bytes - Operating frequencies from 0 up to 8 megaHerz. - At a clock rate 32768 Hz the current of consumption of a chip is less than 30 microAmperes. In a condition "Sleep" - less than one microAmpere. - 13 pin in\out. 25 mA source / sink per I/O/ - Two timing controllers (one of timing controllers - WDT). The price of a chip at purchase from 100 pieces - less than 2 $.
