I am new to pics and have been having some trouble. I am using a 16F628 to control a L293D driver which is a TTL device. I tested the circuit with a 16F84 before acquiring the 16F628 and it worked fine. So, not thinking I assumed that RA0 through RA3 had TTL buffers on the 16F628 like it does on the 16F84. But it does not. So before I rip my circuit apart and redo it, I would like some confirmation that this is indeed the problem. If not I'll look for other errors.
