Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone could give me any suggestions on what I should do, at the moment I have a batch of PIC16C73A and these are one time programmable(OTP) micros and because they are OTP micros, I would not be able to develop programs using this chip without wasting them and I don't have a emulator.
I was wondering if there is a way that I can develop programs on a flash chip which is identical to the PIC16C73A so that I can just use the same code and dump into the PIC16C73A, once the code on the flash chip has been tested in circuit to confirm that it is working.
The problem is I can not find a equivalent of PIC16C73A which is a flash version, would it be better off for me sell the chips and use new model chips with the ICD2 package?
Thanks in advance!!
