many thanks for this and the others posted bruce,and also to the other peoples code examples.

Bruce,
That is a neat function. You introduced the PIC with the motion feedback module which makes many functions much easier.

Hi Don,

I wish Microchip had a boat-load more of PICs' with this hardware peripheral. It can
measure low pulse widths, high pulse widths, frequency, and low/high signals from a
remote control encoder all in hardware.

It saves a TON of code, and it's spot-on with values returned for each signal
period.

This really is the ultimate controller for measuring any type of logic signal in hardware,
and excellent for robotics applications.

Note: If you're using this to record IR signals, use it in the dark, or use an IR module
that's very stable. It picks up on even very short signal transitions.

If you want to read a signal from an RF encoder IC, connect the encoder ICs' data output
pin directly to the pin.

It's rock-solid, and really beats recording each signal transition timing on a scope.
