> > 19.6608 MHz is readily available. > > This seems to fit well in the formula of the 18 series, I think Yes it does, but you can't PLL (ooops, another noun verbalised) that. If you want to run the 18F at high speed with 0% comms error, use 9.8304MHz. Times 4 = 39.3216MHz. For 20MHz devices, no PLL, 19.6608 or 18.432. IOW divisible by 256, not 10 (as in the case of 20MHz, 10MHz, 4MHz etc) PS I really dislike that table because it emphasises comms error rates when it's so easy to attain 0% with better (sensible ?) xtal selection -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
