PBP/PBPL and external memory

[Charles Linquis]

Has anyone used PBP with external memory? I'm totally out of space in an 18F8722 and I'm thinking of moving to the 18F97J60 part (100 pins/128K FLASH) and hooking up an external 2MB chip.

If anyone has had any experience with this, I sure would like to hear from them.

well, yes... but what the memory will be use for? And which one?

I plan on using an ATMEL AT49BV320D. The 18F97J60 will use the "Extended microcontroller mode", where the external memory is just an extension of the internal FLASH.

mmm, never used that feature 'till now... Sorry :(

It appears that I will be breaking new ground,then. I just sent a query to MELABS to find out what they have to say.
