The lower limit is governed by the max current that can go into a pin. Since you are going the other way we won't worry about that limit. The upper limit depends on your application. If for example you're connecting your output to the gate of a transistor the upper limit is determined by the parasitic current flowing into the gate and the Vthreshold of the transistor (assuming static operation, if you want quick dynamic operation the limit is much lower). Since the current going into a gate is so tiny this limit is probably in the realm of hundreds of mega ohms, at least. To find out what is your limit we need to know what you are connecting the output to. TTYL -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
