I Use the PIC18F87J10 series PIC. The prototype is working but i do not like to mass produce a design wich i have not checked important stuff in, like margigs of output drive capacity, worst cases. In the latest datasheet (one year old), the I/O specification is very vague. And i have not seen any in any of the erratas. Maybe there is a general PIC18FJ specification somewhere i have not found? For example the current capability for outputs is only specified in the data sheet under maximum ratings, and ther no indication of max resulting voltage drop. And some pages below, they say Max lov level voltage is 0,6V, and max drop at high poutput is 0,7V. -both on all ports under "standard operating conditions" wothout specifying neither VDD (which affect mosfet on resistance) nor current. -- Morgan Olsson -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
