Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Well done - glad it is now working.

Yes, that Vcap is mission-critical. It MUST be a good quality tantalum, or an X5R SMD ceramic, if you are designing for SMD. It would seem that the PIC32 core intensely dislikes bog-standard caps, which is probably a good thing anyway!

Hi Steve,

Glad it is all working for you..

I am fairly certain that firmware I sent is OK to use as I copied it out of a 250 that was flashed with v1.0 then updated via USB to 1.2.

I would use the one that has the bootloader as well when Geoff releases V1.2w B/Loader to be sure.

Regards,

Mick
