Best Answer

PIC's are programmable microcontroller chips made by Microchip Inc. PIC's can be programmed to do timing functions, but they can do many other things as well.

555's are dedicated purpose timer chips made by several different manufacturers. They have no intelligence, they are strictly analog electronics.
