What is PCF79735S ?

Not sure, but could it be a "transponder", in form of a small glass tube with coil and small IC inside, my FORD remote key has one, if I remove it from the key the car won't start.

The PCF prefix denotes a Philips Semi (now nxp) part. As the NXP site truly sucks, it may not be exporting the appropriate pages via google or other engines.

I suggest you look at nxp, if you can stomach the useless flash and crap.

I now refuse to use their parts - I can't even navigate the site without javascript and flash enabled.

It's possible the part was made by Philips (now NXP) for a specific OEM under contract and therefore has the Philips prefix but is not available to a general public search.

This was a Philips (now NXP) part. It has not been offered for about six years. It is described as a "secured program, readwrite transponder" according to DN44 on the NXP site.

Thanks, all of you.
