PIC16F628-20P Datasheet, PDF (7/170 Pages) Microchip Technology – FLASH-Based 8-Bit CMOS Microcontroller

1.0 PIC16F62X DEVICE VARIETIES
A variety of frequency ranges and packaging options
are available. Depending on application and production
requirements, the proper device option can be selected
using the information in the PIC16F62X Product
Identification System section (Page 167) at the end of
this data sheet. When placing orders, please use this
page of the data sheet to specify the correct part
number.
1.1 FLASH Devices
FLASH devices can be erased and reprogrammed
electrically. This allows the same device to be used for
prototype development, pilot programs and production.
A further advantage of the electrically-erasable FLASH
is that it can be erased and reprogrammed in-circuit, or
by device programmers, such as Microchip's
PICSTART^® Plus, or PRO MATE^® II programmers.

1.2 Quick-Turnaround Production
(QTP) Devices
Microchip offers a QTP Programming Service for
factory production orders. This service is made
available for users who chose not to program a
medium-to-high quantity of units and whose code
patterns have stabilized. The devices are standard
FLASH devices but with all program locations and con-
figuration options already programmed by the factory.
Certain code and prototype verification procedures
apply before production shipments are available.
Please contact your Microchip Technology sales office
for more details.
1.3 Serialized Quick-Turnaround
Production (SQTP^sm) Devices
Microchip offers a unique programming service where
a few user-defined locations in each device are
programmed with different serial numbers. The serial
numbers may be random, pseudo-random or
sequential.
Serial programming allows each device to have a
unique number which can serve as an entry-code,
password or ID number.
