I have been using PIC chips for a while and it seems that every time I = use the VRef option when working with AtoD ports on the mid and high end = chips I cant get the readings to settle down. I get a rough range of = +-5 on my readings. I I tie the Vref to VCC or disable this option it = works ok. Is there any hard and fast rules for using this option. -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline? Don't AutoReply us! email listserv@mitvma.mit.edu with SET PICList DIGEST in the body
