can someone help me check?

ARGH forget me, i didn't notice it was a ServoMotor. So the i/o current is not a problem now.

While i don't see the same thing as you about the only one pin connection... it is connected on 15 and 16.

BTW, do something. Remove both capacitor, crystal and their jumpers, and sit the crystal directly on pin 15 and 16. It will work without the cap... on bread board only.

Next thing, did you set the osc mode to HS in your programmer software???

i am using epic programmer to program the chip. are you familiar with that? umm if not explain to me "osc mode to HS" so i can find it and change it...



found it... but what is HS mode?

[saturnX]

the good news is that the diode is not heating up.. the bad news is that the "servo motor" doesn't move until i break the diode connection and reconnect it back. even so its a small little jerk then nothing else.

no i'm not familiar with EPIC. BUT place the following line on the top of your code. It will set the HS mode for you.

@ __config _HS_OSC & _WDT_OFF & _PWRTE_ON

more info on the following link. Pay attention on #1 and #5
