If you want to do in-circuit programming, you need to ensure that the = resistance is high enough not to upset your programmer.=20 Anything from 0 to 100K would probably fine for most applications. Higher= values will increase noise pickup, so I'd suggest a maximum of 10K unless there is also a cap to = ground. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
