Thanks to everyone for their help! I found the actual problem yesterday. As it turns out there was a transient coming in on an A/D pin other than the one I was using to measure the high voltage. I...

In addition if I comment out the line that turns on PWM I get no voltage drop across the input resistor and the A/D reads the voltage correctly. It almost appears as if the PWM is affecting the A/D.

Thanks Art, I corrected that error but the problem persists. What I have found is that while in a tight loop reading any A/D input the input impedance becomes much lower and causes A/D readings that...

Update: I wrote a value of $FF to the porta register on initialization and had the same failure.

Thanks aerostar! They are uppercase in the MicroCode Studio editor. I get no errors.

Hi Friends!

I am experiencing some strange activity with the A/D converter on my project. The design uses a

I have a tight loop which monitors the voltage from an output circuit...

Thanks much Archangel for your help!

Hi Jerson,

Thanks for always being helpful!

I tried your syntax and I get:

Dear scalerobotics,

I thank you very much for the excellent response. You answered my question with 245//10 as opposed to 245/10. I had noticed that in the book when I first read it months ago but...

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for your help!

I saw that, but it doesn't seem to apply in this case. This exact code compiles and runs perfectly on my desktop machine!

Any other ideas?

Hi Jerry,

Thanks! I think I understand, that looks like it could work.

One question though...

Hi Dave,

Thanks again for your help.

I have considered your idea but I can't figure out how to implement it because the GOSUB LCD_THINGY routine makes 64 lookups of the table in question.

Hi Dave,

I think your latest solution might have worked, but I had already got it working by parsing it after the fact based on Jersons parse routine. I really appreciate everyones input. Here is...
