I saw a quick FAQ on cracking PIC's (16C84's) on a site on the Netherlands. Has anybody tried this? (IT spoke of leaving VDD at .5vdc and VPP @ 12) Thus placing the PIC into a mode unnoted in the data-sheet.. Has anybody tried this? I can't get this to work.. Also- I am having great time problems talking between my decoder and the chip.. Very strange.. I am using a constant 3.5 mhz clock input. Seems like the values change every day depending on temp, weather, etc.. Any ideas? Using XT clock..
