You do really seem one, but I fail to see it in your original post, where you simply implied that the dsPIC may need all the external components usually required for a DSP.

I hope that satisfies you enough. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
