=20 Hi, for a very cost sensitive application including a DCF77 time signal detection I found the 16F639 with an analog front end, which is usually use= d to detect 125KHz signals. After having a first look at the data sheet it should also work for 77,5KHz, but I wanted to know if anybody else did this before successfully. I know, usually a complete DCF77 module (including all this AGC stuff) with digital output is connected to a PIC but if it works with just a cheap ferrite coil it would help to bring down the cost. Any help or ideas? Thanks and best regards Peter --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
