> looks good, may not need it now, but will probably try it anyways. Note that the op amps are running off +/- 8V, which I had available from a MAX232 in the circuit. The output has around +/-6V swing (hence the diodes to clip it). You shouldn't have too much difficulty getting it to go using a 5V rail to get noise that covers the PIC pin's thresholds. I chose not to square up the noise before the PIC saw it as the variable rise times are not undesirable -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
