did you get July Issue?

Hi friends, could you kindly tell me did you get the July Issue of N & V? I'm hoping I can get them soon. We have an AD on this issue, it's the first time, I'm eager to see how does it looks, but I have to wait 20 days to receive the magazine.<p>Mike

Re: telephone via cable network

hi Philba<p>I don't think it's that complex. I think this can be done with simple frequency division. the voice is under 3k, the ethernet is 20M while the TV is above 50M, they are easy to devided.<p>accourding to abu's post, I think he did mean analog TV and phone, not digital signal<p>Mike

Re: "universal" remote USB device IC ?

there're countless uC in cypress and microchip has built-in USB, and they provide sample codes, programming is not a problem. some of these chips has built-in ADC, so you can do all the jobs you want to do with only one chip.<p>have a look at www.cypress.com and www.microchip.com <p>Mike

Re: Using this crystal with a PIC

It's an active oscillator, not a passive crystal. No external circuit needed to make it vibrating. Just connector pin 15 to osc1, osc2 left unconnected.<p>mike

Re: Event Per Hour

Mike<p>the easiest way is using binary counter such as 74hc393. use the output pins to drive some LED then you can know the number.<p>a more advanced design is using a uC to drive LCD or 7 segment LEDs. the programming is very easy, you can try it.<p>Mike
