Hello everyone, I find myself in quite a predicament. I have chosen the PIC16C74B MCU for a project. However, this chip is one time programmable and so debugging has quickly gotten expensive. Since this is for a research project I can have the department handle the expense, but that doesn't feel quite right, and I doubt they will put up with this nonsense for long. There is a CERDIP version of the chip which I'd very much like to obtain, but I checked Mouser, Newark, LCSC, Arrow electronics, and Digikey and none have the part in stock. If anyone here can help me find one of these I would greatly appreciate it. If not I will need to find a suitable replacement, preferably something that wont involve rewriting all my code. As of now I'm using the UART and SPI interface, so at the very least I'll need a part that has those two functions.
