Is there a similar PIC to MC68HC908 from Motorola?

Hi everyone,

I need help in finding an alternative uC for MC68HC908 , I prefer PICs. So, how can I decide what PIC is suitable for my application that uses uC form Motorola.?The advantage is that I got PIC tools and required HW in hand, which will save time and $.


You can also help by suggesting a cheap programmer for HC08, I don't intend to DIY.

Thanks a lot.

Instead of looking for a completely compatible alternative, you should decide what are the features and peripherals you need. Eg. you may decide that you need a certain number of pins, a certain number of ADC input pins, a certain number of PWM modules. You may need serial communication. Like this, choose what you want and choose a PIC that fits the requirements. Then, you'll get a better choice of the PIC to use instead of looking for a PIC that is completely similar to the HC908.

A few common PICs that have most peripherals are:
PIC16F690, PIC16F877A, PIC16F887, PIC18F2550, PIC18F4550, PIC18F458, etc

Hope this helps.
Tahmid.
 
Thanks a lot to all, I really appreciate everything.
