Yes, I forgot to add that during the test I had an 14.7456Mhz crystal connected and used no pll. Sorry to incorrectly state the test setup.=20 As stated they were out of spec. Normally the product uses an 7.3728 MHz with pll, however my test setup was I bit different, I started out with 3.6864 Mhz crystal before I spotted the condition (for use without pll) and then replaced it. My mind was a bit weary when writing the mail to the piclist. However using the 14.7456Mhz and no pll produced the outcome according to my mail.=20 -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
