pbppi14e.lib problem

[Charlie]

So my program is running happily on a 16F1828. I've been coding with the 16 MHz internal clock, but eventually need to use a 25 MHz external clock. The clock devices came in, I'm trying to switch over, and PBP is throwing errors during compile. Here's what I get:

Error [101] c:\pbp\pbppi14e.lib 104: ERROR: (invalid OSC Define.)
Error [113] c:\pbp\pbppi14e.lib 4992 : symbol not previously defined (PAUSEUSL)
Error [113] c:\pbp\pbppi14e.lib 6192 : symbol not previously defined (PAUSEUSL)
Error [113] c:\pbp\pbppi14e.lib 5604 : symbol not previously defined (PAUSEUSL)

The manual says a 25 MHz clock is fine, and the devices say a 25 MHz clock is fine.... What now?

PBP 2.60C

I stress again, the code works fine on the 16 MHz internal clock.

Any ideas?

Posting your code might help.

25Mhz is valid on 18F parts, but not on the "Enhanced Core" devices (12F1,16F1).

For the enhanced core devices ... 3.58(3),4,8,10,12,16,20,24 and 32Mhz are supported.

Thanks, Darrel.

Bummer.
Well, I don't have any timing critical operations once I'm finished debugging, so perhaps I'll lie to PBP - tell it it's running 24 MHZ but really run it on 25 MHz. As long as I manage my timings outside PBP, all should be fine.

Another adventure!

If nothing has critical timing ... you could run it at 32Mhz from the internal oscillator and dump the crystal and caps.
Which also frees up 2 I/O pins.

Contrary to popular belief, the internal oscillators are pretty accurate these days.
You can even debug through a serial port that way.
