  • It does surprise me that you don't mention the 8031 or 8032 in your exhibition of knowledge.
    1) 803x are just w/o code memory
    2) have not heard of 803x for the last 10+ years
    3) the "original numberint system" has basically been abandoned e.g. I can count dozens of 8051 devices with 256 bytes of IRAM (NXP, SILabs, Arghmel, ....)
