Pricing Question

[n305er]

Hi,

I'm currently just doing a check on Microchip's PIC price to be added into my project report and I noticed that both 16F873A and 16F876A is more expensive then then 16F877A although the 2 earlier chips has less pin counts and even the 16F873A has less features.

I would like to state the reason in my final report. Thanks.

I hope i'm posting in the right thread.

i think this is because 16F877A is more common use.

Yes, I agree on the famous part will become cheaper.
