This was once the cheapest 8-pin/14-bit FLASH PICmicro. The number of I/O pins is small (3..6, depending on oscillator and reset options), so this chip is suitable for small projects only.
The PIC-12F675-DIP is the same chip, but with A/D converter. The PIC-16F630-DIP (no A/D) and PIC-16F676-DIP (with A/D) are priced somewhat higher, but provide more I/O pins. The PIC-10F206-DIP is cheaper but has the 12-bit core and only 6 pins (4 I/O pins). For development or as "first PIC" with A/D the PIC-16F877A-DIP or PIC-18F452-DIP are better choices.
To use this chip at its maximum speed of 20 MHz an external crystal or resonator is required, like X-20M, X-SMD-20M, R-20M. This chip can also run on its internal oscillator, but this limits the operating frequency to 4 MHz.
This chip is in a DIP housing. Suitable sockets are DIP-08-L-(5) (low-cost, flat pins) or DIP-08-Q-(5) or (high-quality, round pins)..
DIP-ZIF28 is a ZIF socket that could be used with this chip.

When this standard chip is temporarily not available I might provide you an LF chip (extended opertaing voltage range) or an E version (extended temperature range) instead. Such chips are fully (upwards) compatible replacements for the plain F chips.
If you have a .hex file that you want programmed into this chip that is possible for an extra fee. Add PIC-PROGRAMMING to your order, and send me the .hex file by email. Note: the .hex file must be complete, including the configuration fuses.
