im a bit confused in differentiating which PIC is EEPROM based and which is FLASH based. the first page of the 628 datasheet says
while the 628 isnt FLASH, its EEPROM
the first page of the 628A datasheet says
so does that mean that both the 628 and the 628A are flash. then why was there the need for the 628A?
one thing more, the datasheet of the 628A says
does the endurance tell the amount of write/re-write cycles. if yes then should FLASH be more endurable? because ive read in a book that FLASH can be written more times than EEPROM.
sorry if im wrong. and plz guide me.
thanx

the first page of the 628A datasheet says
PIC16F627A/628A/648A

Flash-Based 8-Bit CMOS

so does that mean that both the 628 and the 628A are flash. then why was there the need for the 628A?
one thing more, the datasheet of the 628A says
High Endurance Flash/EEPROM Cell
- 100,000 write Flash endurance
- 1,000,000 write EEPROM endurance
- 100 year data retention
does the endurance tell the amount of write/re-write cycles. if yes then should FLASH be more endurable? because ive read in a book that FLASH can be written more times than EEPROM.
