The step beyond the 18F PICs: the 16 bit dsPIC!
manufacturer: Microchip
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.
