I have an existing circuit and it just kills batteries to fast. It is a chip (AT90S1200A-12) running on the internal 1Mhz OSC.
I had a pic circuit that did the same and I wound up dropping it to 32.7Khz and rewriting all the timing loops.. PIC worked fine.
Just tired with the Atmel 1200 circuit , and I have a funning feeling Atmel will not run that slow. The caps are 15pf..
I have not dug out the scope yet. I re-enabled the internal OSC and put delays back and it runs fine.
The data sheets mention 12Mhz and internal 1Mhz.. Will I be re-doing it all over on a PIC??
