Need some help in finding a suitable microcontroller

Hi everyone, i'm currently choosing a microcontroller with at least 1kbytes of on-chip sram/xram that can be used for xdata. However, i would want to avoid having a big microcontroller like DS89C450. SMD would work but i would want to it to have a socket. I have search the web for the microcontrollers with at least 1kbytes of sram/xram. The closest i can find that is DS89C450, the rest are SMD. Maybe, i'm not looking hard enough but does anyone have any recommendation?

  • So you want a processor that can be specifically removed from the PCB, and put in a programmer?

    Move into the current century - get a processor that you can reprogram while the processor is still soldered to the PCB. There are a number of processors that have a good interface for in-application and in-system programming. Some of them can be programmed with very, very cheap programming adapters. Some of them can use the same cheap adapter to debug the program.
