Clock

[Fredrick]

The following code only work with a 4 Mhz crystal, how can i get it to work with a 20Mhz crystal?

DEFINE OSC 20 does´t help, the clock ticks to fast whit a 20Mhz crystal

I use PicBasic Pro 2.50a

EDIT: I think i can change the number of "ticks" from 61 to something higher but how do i calculate the right value for the tick?

Add this into your program !!



@ DEVICE PIC16F873,XT_OSC
@ DEVICE PIC16F873,HS_OSC

DEFINE OSC 20



It's an example for a PIC16F873, if you have another chip than replace it.

Hi

Mister e has very kindly provided a calculator PICMultiCalc for just this sort of thing.

not quite sure how to provide link to a previous post on this forum, but a quick search should get you there

This section...
' Set TMR0 to interrupt every 16.384 milliseconds
OPTION_REG = $55 ' Set TMR0 configuration and enable PORTB pullups
INTCON = $a0 ' Enable TMR0 interrupts
On Interrupt Goto tickint

...sets the interrupt frequency, based on a clock timer. When you change the clock speed, the interrupts still happen at the same number of clock cycles. The multicalc program that Mr. E has will help you calculate how often it is going now (documented at 16mS), and help you get there with the clock * 5.
