I am generating a 16 bit number, upto 15999, and want to address 16 output pins to programme a frequency synthesiser. I'm sure the answer is in the archives, but after 2 days of looking, I can't find it. Sorry if it only came up last week.
Question 1
How do I split the number into 2 8 bit numbers and then use the Let Pins command?
I was planning to use a 40X chip, but with a LCD display taking one output, I need to send one of the 8 bit numbers to a 18X to give 16 output pins.
Question 2
What is the best way of sending the 8 bit number to the 18X chip? Use another output and use Serout on the 40X and Serin on the 18X?
Any help, much appreciated.
Thanks
Graham
