I ran across this while searching for a working 16F88 datasheet: http://www.microchip.com/download/lit/pline/picmicro/families/12f6xx/40040b.pdf\ While it's specifically geared for reducing I/O pin consumpution for the 8 pin 12F629 and 12F675, the tips documented can have equally as effective use in projects with larger pin count parts. Check it out. BTW does anyone have a valid 16F87/16F88 datasheet? Never mind I solved the problem. While the http site seems to have a damaged copy of document 30487b.pdf with the following characteristics: MD5SUM e4bc2f57498e34a087665030ab857798 /local/tmp/30487b.pdf Length 3859276 bytes The ftp site has a file with some different numbers: MD5SUM 8a3db4a634db96fd70b87d27e0fc03af 30487b.pdf Length 3859276 Same size but different files. So if you need the datasheet, go to the FTP site. BAJ -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline? Don't AutoReply us! email listserv@mitvma.mit.edu with SET PICList DIGEST in the body
