Bloody well does unless you have a different understanding of 'does' to me. Graham

That sounds right to me. It gets into the interrupt routine quite quickly. > It has been a while since I looked at the resulting code form PLM but it rarely > contains outright mistakes. Never seen one. > It sometimes does an unneeded operation or two. Possibly. I've timed a moderately complex interrupt that included some 16 bit math and compares and it could complete it in 80us with a 12MHz cystal. That's the 6/12 cycle original 80C51 design too. Use a new one @ 33MHz and the 2 cycle operations and it would be 5 us or so. Graham *cycle is the wrong word but you know what I mean.

I can't take the risk of bugs cropping up in unsupported software. If there are no bugs in the compiler (don't believe it) Windows will install them. -- Keith

Bloody well does unless you have a different understanding of 'does' to me. Not when I was using Intel's software. USING was only a directive to get the compiler to point R0-7 to the right place. It didn't actually load the pointers selecting the bank. -- Keith |
