Lots of variables when considering a PIC.
Well, the 12F683 is about $2 and that's OK. The products will sell for around $80, hopefully.

Instead of small size, I could have stated 8DIP with the possibility to go to 8SOIC in the future.


I will probably be back very soon with more stupid questions about PIC12F683, but that will be a new thread!
