    Hello. I am using the instant interrupt routine. I also posess a servo motor like ted,
    so I wand to start a pulsout every 20ms. I did this in the tmr0-interrupt routine(tmr0
    initialized by OPTION_REG = 1) I am using a 20Mhz quarz.

    I think: 20 / 4 = 5Mhz. OPTION_REG means prescaler = 1:1. Means 1/(5,000,000) equals 0.2us.

    TMR0 = 8Bit => 256 * 0.2us = 51.2us.

    So every 51.2us there will be an interrupt. So

    20,000 / 51.2 = 390.625 = 391. So as soon as the interrupt will have occurred 391 times 20ms
    should have been passed. I wrote
    Code:
      main:
       '...do xyz
       counter = 0
       END
    
      IRRoutine:
       IF counter = 391 THEN
        pulsout servo, duration
       ENDIF
       IF counter > 391 THEN
        counter = 0
       ENDIF
       IF counter < 391 THEN
        counter = counter + 1
       ENDIF
       @ INT_RETURN
    But the servo is choppy. What is wrong?
