Yes, and so have a LOT of people. FWIW, it dosent' matter what frequency you're running at either. The vittoz mode osc output is only about 0.5VCC, and unless the crystal is selected for very small cap values and the whole ckt has been carefully designed, you'll have problems. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
