Hi Guillermo and people who had same problems! ...provided that we did all the setups Gilles and the archives told us we have to contact ' to get this newer? "icd-12.tgt" file which probably should fix our very hard-to- find problem with ECKLs going beyond the 8MHz border got from a fixed 16MHz oscillator clock and now extending this by selecting a higher PLLCLK, for e.g. 48MHz for generation of a <bus clock>K$MHz! So taking into consideration that Gilles carbon-copied his posting before to the support team we have to wait for an official answer from them! This problem probably is dedicated more to support teams than R&Ds as we now surely could assume... :) Ok, and I am not sure - probably you have to contact ' for the south americas - but look at your contract documents which is the right email address to contact the right location!-) Best regards and happy developing Christian --- In , "Guillermo F.
