Hello PIC experts,

I am developing a small project using the PIC 16C74 and recently needed
to change the Crystal from 16MHz to 20MHz. When I did that, a problem
started with the asynchronous communication controller, it started to
recived wronge characters.

Has any one had such problems ?

Is 20MHz Crystal works OK with the 16C74 (the documentation says it
should) ?

Any special modification to the Crystal circut needs to be added for the
20MHz clock ?

thanks chaipi
