> How Fast can a typical PORT Pin of a PIC Micro Switch from > Low to High or vice versa That spec is in the datasheet. In the 18F1x20 d/s it's 10ns typical, 25ns max for both rise and fall (longer max for LF) For Scenix it's shorter than that, perhaps 4-5ns. Waveform at 50MHz http://www.sxlist.com/techref/scenix/an_sc_01.gif Actual pulse width, as detected by a PIC depends on the VL / VH thresholds > i.e. if a Pin is Initially Low... and if I switch the PIN high and set it to > Input immediately.. and read it back in the next instruction..

If what you want to do depends or not on whether this '1' is present is perhaps best found by experimentation > say if I was running the PIC at 40MHZ.. 18F then ? -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
