Title: Two PICs One Crystal?
Post by: vonlark on March 18, 2008, 01:19:12 PM

Hey guys,
I'm looking to run two PIC18f1320s on the same board and want to know what's the best way to synchronize their clocks. I'm using a 10MHz crystal and the PPL to get a 40MHz clock going.

Can I just wire the OSC pins on both PICs to the crystal or do I need to do clock out on one of the PICs to the other or what? Your help's appreciated.

Definately do a clock out
