16F877a to 18f4620 compatible?

[ferds]

The upgrade works just fine. I've built an mp3 player that started out with a 16F877, then to an 18F452, and now it's running from an 18F4620.

hi skimask,

is it possible if you can share your mp3 project, im also planning to build one, i already have a VS1001 mp3 decoder.

thanks

Can you exactly define share?
As with soooo many things, do you want me to come over to your house to design and build it for you? Or would you like advice at various times when a difficult issue comes up that seems unresolveable?

If it's the first choice, as it has been practically every time I get an email on the subject, then forget about it...

If it's the 2nd choice, then I'd be happy to start a whole new thread on the subject. But, for a taste, go to www.srt.com/~jdgrotte and hit the mp3 player link on the left. I don't use a VS1001 in my design, but I've heard the earlier versions are a bit tempermental, so I guess I can't comment on that chip without all relavent facts. The STA013 isn't without it's own problems, specifically, you have 'bootload' some code to it to get it to function properly at higher bit rates.

And yes...I am being sarcastic...
and no...these comments are not a personal attack against 'ferds' but are a general statement about the lazyness of people overall...

'nuff said? Good...
