2) Single manufacturer. If Atmel backorder you for a 500 day wait, you are screwed. If a '51 manufacturer tell you the same, you go to another. Even, when using very specific derivatives, the chyanges in that situation are nominal. Ap Charles said:
For clause 2) the only change would be a C compiler nothing else . Even when sticking with the same architecture, chamging compiler is never trivial! Just look at the number of threads here (and at Keil) about "porting" code from Brand-X compiler to Brand-Y. Even changing versions of the same compiler can require significant work! Changin both compiler and target architecture at the same time would be a major undertaking! |
