Well I would replace the 8720 with the 8722 if I had a choice, however I am working on an existing design which uses a 8720, so I am forced to use 8720 and PORTD. I would have changed the port as well, but I no choice.

The '8722 is pin compatible and software compatible with the '8720 and it's only got a couple of different registers to worry about. I would think it would be an easy replacement. And removing an TQFP isn't all that hard, if you do it one pin at a time (at least that's what they teach in the class I just got back from).Originally Posted by nverma

Well I guess if I can't get it working soon, I'll most probably do that. Thanks, please let me know if anyone else knows what im doing wrong.

For grins, try changing your variable names and accessing registers like the MEMCON, PSPCON, etc. with the peek/poke to their actual locations vs. using their actual names...
Ya never know...

We could still compile a HEX file with PBP 2.47 to see what happen?
Unfortunately i don't have those on hand... out of stock and there's no plan around them soon. Even if it was the case....

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

Back a few years ago, when I saw the errata sheet for the 4Mhz limitation, I put that MCU in 'Not Recommended for ANY design' bin.
I've got a couple of '8722's that haven't failed me yet (well, at least any more than anything else).

I found the problem! So surprising enough, PORTD needs to be driven at more current, I replaced the 10K resistor arrays with 1.5K resistor and now it seems to be working fine. But really these CMOS inputs should not need this much current. Just thought you guys would be curious. Thanks!
