Good day Dwayne,
For something more capable than the PIC 16F676, but not much more
complicated, I have been using the PIC 16F1823,4,or 5 chips.
They are 14 pin chips with different amounts of memory.
16F1823 16F1824 16F1825
Flash 2k words 4k words 8k words
EEPROM 246 256 256
RAM 128 256 1024
I have been using these chips for a number of years, I also have a
problem working with "C".
Good luck.
Joel
