Sorry that's all I know about the subject for now. The circuit I showed has been tested on bread board and is currently being designed into a product. I hope to do some more experimenting with the finnished article, maybe see if it will link to another micro device using the MCP2155. -- Brent Brown, Electronic Design Solutions 16 English Street, Hamilton, New Zealand Ph/fax: +64 7 849 0069 Mobile/txt: 025 334 069 eMail: brent.brown@clear.net.nz -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
