I've lost a hope to do it with PIC (ordered special crystals, but didn't have time to wait) and decided to try Scenix. At 14.38MHz crystal (same one I used for PIC) jitters almost disappeared. Reasons: ~70nS cycle time (280 for PIC) and exactly 5 cycles of interrupt latency. Just a thought... Gennady Palitsky Jefferson Audio Video Systems gennadyp@mainlink.net
