Hi
This thread came from another one asking some questions about changing the CCP2 pin of a 18F4620.
I am thinking of using the same RC1 pin for the following :
1) Backlight brightness control of LCD module using PWM (Default behaviour)
2) Capturing of pulses generated by a light to freq photodiode, TSL230R (When required)
See Diagram

My questions are :
1) When RC1 is generating PWM to drive the LCD module, will it damage or cause problem to the photo-diode?
2) When RC1 is capturing the pulses generated by the photo-diode, will it damage or cause problem to the LCD module?
Your comments much appreciated. Thks!
