> >Does anyone know where I can buy PICs in the UK? > http://www.farnell.com/uk - good range of stock but a bit expensive Rapid Electronics, reasonable range (no F628, but they do have F627, they are usually the cheapest for PICs, at least for small quantities. Actually, they are usually the cheapest for most things they sell, IME. No minimum order value (Farnell is UKP10 minimum order unless you have an account but Farnell delivery is free, you pay postage at Rapid unless the order is over UKP30). http://www.rapidelectronics.co.uk Also have a look for Maplin Electronics, RS Components and CPC http://maplin.co.uk, rshttp://www.com, http://cpc.co.uk , IIRC!)- all sell to non-account holders, some are easier to get catalogues from than others... there are other suppliers too- pick up an electronics magazine from your local newsagent to get some more options!
