Hi,
Am using the pic18Fs to control various led arrays etc, which will always present an even-ish load by the nature of the layout.
The i/o pin currents are 25ma max and the total current per chip is quoted as Vdd 250ma, Vss 300ma.
Any suggestions as to what practical maximum load should be applied though the chip to ensure good life ?
( Want to keep the use of extra chips / transistors to a minimum. )
Thanks
