Howdy Andy! It's been awhile since I used a MAX3100 with a PIC but I had an application using a remote sensor that sent data at 115Kbaud using 9-Bit addressing. All I can say is the MAX3100 worked as advertized using a simple `bit-banged' SPI interface. I was working from data sheet 19-1259; Rev 0; 7/97. As far as the DS1306, I've used similar parts and they always had a configuration bit to start the oscillator. - Tom At 02:21 02-11-02, Andy Kunz wrote: >Has anybody used any of these devices with a PIC?
