Microchip has added five PIC 8-bit Flash microcontrollers that are updates to its most popular Baseline one-time programmable (OTP) microcontrollers. Offering Flash memory in these Baseline devices allows customers the ability to reprogram their design during development, production and when installed in the field says the company.
Microchip's Baseline PIC devices are extensively used in many cost-sensitive applications and Flash memory can increase development efficiencies and reduce total system costs. The PIC16F54, PIC16F57, PIC16F505, PIC12F508 and PIC12F509 offer customers the benefits of re-programmable Flash memory via an easy migration path from Microchip's existing OTP devices, with equivalent price points and identical pin-counts in 8-, 14-, 18-, 20- and 28-pin packages. Additional enhanced features include an improved internal oscillator, wider operating voltage of 2-5,5 V, improved reset functionality, and smaller (MSOP) packaging for the PIC12F508 and PIC12F509.

As soon as electronics and electrical systems started interfering with each other, the world had to come to some consensus. Considering physics is universal and does not care about what country electrical/electronic products are used in, it should be the same everywhere, right? It is nearly there, but not quite.
