Not sure about the 18 pin devices without checking the datasheet, but certainly on the 28 pin. Note that the internal hardware uses separate modules, SSP or MSSP for the I2C or SPI, and USART for the serial comms. _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
