If you need enough of a crystal you can get a custom frequency made. If not, the standard frequency of 7.3728MHz is widely available since it is a multiple of common baud rates. That means you run at 29.49 MIPs instead of 30.00 MIPs, which is only 1.7% less. You do get the advantage that it can hit any of the common baud rates exactly. ******************************************************************** Embed Inc, Littleton Massachusetts, http://www.embedinc.com/products (978) 742-9014.
