I read in ( 18Fxx2 DataSheet ) > > > http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/39564c.pdf that I can use a Resistor and a Capacitor to clock the 18f452 PIC Page 18 says (including a diagram) : Recommended values:3 k=A6=B8 =A1=DC REXT =A1=DC 100, CEXT > 20pF But there is not place I can find the achieved clocking related to those values. Any clue ? Sebastian.


ATmega8515 power consumption

I am struggling to get the power consumption of sensor device down. According to the datasheet (page 208, top graph), the ATmega8515 I use, uses slightly less than 1mA @ 3.3V and 1MHz internal clock while active. But I measure around 2.3mA. Even when I stop all I/O and go into an endless loop, it still uses 2.1mA. Is Atmel showing off here or am I missing something? Meindert

We need to synchronize clocks (so we can synchronize audio) on physically separated controllers that are connected via ethernet that may or may not be connected to the internet. The controllers have ARM9 LPC3250 SOM and embedded Linux. We need to synch with no more than 50 ms difference but preferably less. Synchronization needs to continue working between any two controllers reg

Hi there, a newbie question, and I would be grateful for a response or at least hint where to look(read) for information. My problem is: I have two synchronisation domains. One device (A) is running at a 2.048 frequency. Then there is a STM32 microcontroller (B) that is using 8 MHz clock source. Dev A gives out NRZ data stream and accept NRZ data stream. I want to send and receive data ...

Hello, I am using the PCF8563 as RTC on my board. It should be plain simple to access via I?C. Other people seem to use it without problems, therefore following problem is driving me nuts: I can read and write the registers in the part via I?C. The clock is running at its 32.768kHz. I can set a date and read it back. However: The RTC does not count correctly?!? I observed following: ...

Hello, I'm trying to hook up a 74HCT163 to count from 0 to 7 then loop and keep doing it. I'm having a lot of trouble making sense of the data sheet on how to connect this thing.

I was worried about going straight from the 555 chip to the cou...

Hi all, I have a few questions on how to go about generate the correct waveforms for reading/writing from/to an external flash memory using an AVR microcontroller. The AVR has enough I/O to allow direct connection between address, data and control lines. I don't have to worry about counters/latches etc. The AVR is using a 12MHz clock. How do you work out how long each cycle will take? ...

ADS1251 and 8051 Code Has anyone done this who can share the code? Just to save me time. Any gotchas? I'd also quite like not to take every sample so I can use just the ADS1251 to interrupt so it is both my clock and a data ready interrupt. I suppose it would be best to at least take one bit of the result. TIA, Bill

Although I don't believe in shipping products with parts pushed past their datasheet specs, I'm not above playing around. After a day of figuring out the clock and pll on the above chip and getting the pll to run at 64 Mhz, I thought "what the hell" and changed the cpu divider from 2 to 1. The part runs just fine and a scope verified that it is indeed running at 64 Mhz. Not bad for a $1...
