Doesn' it give the meaning in the data sheet?

Probably the wrong forum for this question, but the answers are:

80C51: the "C" indicates that it's a Cmos part (rather than Nmos).

This means that the power consumption of the 80C51 is lower.

PIC16F773: the "F" indicates that it's got Flash programmable memory rather than Ultraviolet Erasable memory to store the program.

This means that the 16F773 can be reprogrammed with the need to use an Ultraviolet light source to erase the existing program in the device.

Give the mana fish, and he eats for a day. Teach the man to fish, and he eats for a lifetime. It probably would have done the OP a lot more good to learn how to find the info instead of just giving the answer.
