It's probably "safe" to assume you can use Instant Interrupts.
But it's probably NOT safe to assume the ethernet drivers will be set up to use them.
It all depends on what Fred does.

I wasn't assuming that Fred would even be aware of Instant Interrupts. I'm mostly interested in using interrupts with the timers, the 4 external interrupt pins and the 4 IOC pins. Incoming Internet traffic will be minimal, outgoing traffic will be heavier but I believe incoming traffic is buffered.

No problem there.
It should work fine with all 5 timers, 4-external INTs (0-3), RBC and all the normal stuff, USART, MSSP, CCP etc.
However, if he does use interrupts in the ethernet driver, there may be some conflicts to work out.
I guess we have to wait and see.

I figure it will be worth the waiting and the seeing and the resolving of any conflicts. The Ethernet Module has its own set of interrupts (described in section 18.3 of the datasheet) which are independent of the ones used by the PIC so I'm hopeful there won't be conflicts. However, this is all obviously over my head else I wouldn't be waiting on Fred to work his magic or relying on your expertise with interrupts.

PIC18F67J60 bootloader
I got my Ethernet Mini Kit today.
A bit of searching turned up a commercial bootloader for the PIC18F97J60 family.
|
Looks like a start. (bootloader only)
Still hoping Mr. Eady comes up with something.

It should be in a forthcoming issue of Nuts & Volts.Originally Posted by Darrel Taylor

Yeeeee Hawwwww!!
Just got the 67J60 to come online and I successfully received a frame.. Nothing but PICBASIC PRO mnemonics and one assembler instruction used.. a NOP.. Things should move along very quickly from here as all that's left is to do is enable the protocols and DHCP.. If things go as planned, you can read about my "adventures" in Nuts and Volts very soon via the Design Cycle column.. And, in a week or so you'll have some working code you can apply to your applications. I'm very impressed with the technical skills I've seen in this forum. I'm sure that some of my BASIC hacking in the MINI driver can and will be improved upon :-)
Have fun,
Fred
