The PIC16C505 is a 8-bit CMOS microcontroller utilizing a RISC processor core. The PIC16C505 has the following specs ========================================= |Program ROM (KB) | 1.5 | |Data RAM Size (Byte) | 72 | |Maximum Clock Frequency| 20Mhz | |I/O Pins | 11 | |Input Pins | 1 | |In-Circuit Serial Prog.| Yes | |No. of Instructions | 33 | |Package (MK121) | 14-pin DIP | ========================================= ===================== ______ _ | | ___ (_) | | |_/ /_ _ __ ___ | | __/| | '_ \/ __| | | | | | | | \__ \ | \_| |_|_| |_|___/ | | ===================== ============ VDD |1 14| Vss RB5/OSC1/CLKIN | | RB0 RB4/OSC2/CLKOUT | | RB1 RB3/MCLR/Vpp | | RB2 RC5/T0CKI | | RC0 RC4 | | RC1 RC3 |7 8| RC2 ============ PIC16C505 ===================================================== _____ _ _____ _ __ __ | | ___| | | / ___| | / _|/ _| | | |____ _| |_ _ __ __ _ \ `--.| |_ _ _| |_| |_ | | __\ \/ / __| '__/ _` | `--. \ __| | | | _| _| | | |___> <| |_| | | (_| | /\__/ / |_| |_| | | | | | \____/_/\_\\__|_| \__,_| \____/ \__|\__,_|_| |_| | | ===================================================== The PIC16505 featured on the MK121 is not reprogrammable. Or rather I don't think it's reprogrammable. The 16C505 does contain erasable PROM but I'm unsure how to reprogram it as my experience with PIC16 microcontrollers is rather limited. However reprogramming the pong game might be a bit difficult. I do intend on trying to "dump" the ROM contents of the pong game because why not. Hey, Maybe it can be emulated in MAME! Even though it's just a PIC16505 with some resistors and capacitors. Real fancy!
