Does 20M Support PWM?

[MurrayJ]

Having a look through the command manual 2 I cant find any info for PWM or PWMOUT for the Picaxe 20M. Is it not yet in the manual, or is it not supported?

Based upon the most recent PICAXE Manual 1 (Rev 6.6) page 8 the 20M has no PWM capabilities.

PWM is available on the 08M, (pin2) 18X (pin3) and 28X1 (C.1 & C.2) and 40X1 (C1 & C2).

The PWMOUT command is available for the 14M, 18X, 28X1 and 40X1.
The HPWM command is available for the 14M, 28X1 and 40X1.

The PICAXE-20M is based on the PICmicro 16F677 which does not have PWMOUT hardware so does not support the PWMOUT command.

The PWM command is only supported on the PICAXE-08 and 08M.

Thanks for the info, I might have to go for a 14M instead.
