Hi,
I made a simple 12 bit ADC using LTC1298 in SPI with 16f887 and works perfect. I tried the same setup same pins with a 18F4550 but won't work.
the 16F887 code is:

Code:
'==========================MCU SETUP============================================  
DEFINE OSC 20

CM1CON0 = 0
CM2CON0 = 0

TRISD = 0
TRISE = 0

gosub adc

dummy = adcval*2442
pot_v =  div32 1000

 RETURN

END
the above code works good with the 16F887 then I tried this which is the same with the 18F4550:

Code:
'===========================CONFIGURATION=======================================

but I'm not reading the ADC in the 18F4550. The only difference is the serial LCD but I tried with both but no luck. I guess is something to do with : DEFINE SHIFT_PAUSEUS 100 if so what the value supposed to be?

in advance thanks for any help you can provide.

Best regards,
Joe
