I want to be able to run my PIC16c71 at 3.3V, but be able to have VREF set to 5V so that I can sense 0 to 5V on the analog input pins with the A/D converter. Is this possible? The specs seem to indicate that pins must have a level from -0.3V to VDD+0.3V with respect to VSS. That would seem to indicate it isn't possible. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has tried it. Thanks, --Anil
