I've jsut turned up the M452 schematic. Has anyone else looked at it? It's a <expletive> RC transistorised oscillator driving a /4 divider chain. Are you seriously telling me you don't have a junk box full of random R's and C's and you can't change the timing components to get whatever rate you want out of it? I am very worried that people would rather use a microcontroller than change a couple of passives. Can't anyone read a schematic and think???? -tony
