I did some prototyping with the 16F628A but now I need to move my code to another PIC which as at least two CCPs so I can send out HPWM commands to 2 motors (but use 1 rotary encoder to control the duty cycle). The 16F628A only has 1 CCP so after some trial and error on the Microchip site to find an appropriate PIC I settled on the 16F1825 which has 4 CCPs (more than I need, I know).
Now that I'm converting the code I'm wondering if I've really messed up. In the 16F628A data sheet it says that RB4/5 pins can be used as interrupt-on-pin change and indeed when I connect the A/B pins of the rotary encoder to these two and using the code below with Darrel's interrupt plug-in all works fine:

Now that I've got the 16F1825 chip, though, and I'm reading through the data sheet I don't see similar info about any of the PortA/C pins in terms of providing interrupt-on-pin change, so here's my question: have I picked the wrong chip? All I really want is one very similar to the 16F628A but with two CCPs. If I still can use the 16F1825, what does this code become and what pins can I use (presuming RA4/5 are for the external oscillator & RC3/5 are for the HPWM)?
