Hi, Atmel AVR microcontrollers can link the adc mux output to one of the internal comparator input pins. So by quickly switching the adc channel you can apply different signals to the comparator. May be you can facilitate this feature in your circuit. Hope this helps Murat Karade

I don't know of any specific commands because each port is stored as a binary number so there really is no need to convert it. So if you use two ports you will have a low byte and a high byte, one will be port a and the other port b. Ie: Mov R20, PINA Mov R21, PINB Daniel > -----
