Thanks WD, Henrik and Avionics,
I was pondering the leading zero method, which certainly is not a deal breaker for me...I just thought it would be sexier to right justifyIf I find a need for a tad more speed, I'll definitely use leading zeros. On the ICSP thing, I think I might modify my board to have it. I think my short term pain in changing the etch would pay off well in the long term, which is usually the case in life isn't it... Did you guys happen to have any thoughts on the RPM Sub? Another thing I noticed is, what are the odds that I may miss an encoder index pulse while inside the Timer ISR (because I disable the IOC Interrupt)? Are there any ways that I could safeguard against this situation, or should I sweat it? This will obviously be a more critical situation at low rpm...
I can't thank you guys enough for your thoughts and willingness to help (Ditto what Avionics wrote),
Chris
EDIT: Sorry Henrik, I completely missed your previous post in regards to the RPM thing. I thought about that A or B channels, which would be way more accurate...if I only knew how many PPR they are(way old proprietary Renco's from a ct scan machine). I suppose it would be pretty simple to whip up some code to count the pulses as I rotate the motor by hand...hmmmm.
