I am ordering a inchworm kit, hopefully tomorrow, and was wondering about ordering a PIC16F631-I/P at the same time to save on shipping. but this PIC only has 1.75k of flash. I want to use the PIC to control one of these: https://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=709#. THe rest of the software will be a counter. The project is to make a counter that will go up to some value (and displaying number) on the LCD.
Can anyone tell me if there will be enough space for the program? I have a feeling there will be but I don't want to order PICs that I can't use. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I have not programmed for the PIC's yet. My arduino consumes a lot of memory for firmware, so I am not sure if PICs are the same. I will be using the MPLAB and a free C compiler.
