Re: [PIC] CCP1 Glitches in noisy environment (RC Tx)

I eventually found the problem after a lot of long days.

When assigning to the compare register CCPR1 (2 bytes) the low byte was
written first followed by the high byte.  After the low byte was written
there was a match with Timer1 that caused another interrupt when one should
not have happened.

The solution is to write the high byte first followed by the low byte.

: I got rid of the RF noise by removing the crystal and to my surprise I'm

: The glitch happens when the ISR returns to the main program.  The number
of

put
