Dear All
Let me know that, can we operate PIC 16f877a using internal RC oscillator
without external oscillators please advice
 

Hi,

The 877 series do not have an internal oscillators.
You must provide a signal by means of a crystal, ceramic resonator, R/C or some other form of signal generator, depending on the accuracy you need, though crystals are accurate and cheap enough.

For an internal oscillator you will have to choose another 16F chip with that feature, use Microchips Parameter search to find suitable ones. though most are limited to a max frequency of 4 or 8 Mhz

Dear All
one category of the external clock source is connected to the OSC1 input and the OSC2 is
DC - 20MHz

lest me know, what is the this "DC"
 

Hi,

DC = Zero , 0 Mhz to 20 Mhz
