this problem had me going crazy for a weeks already..
i assemble my circuit on a breadboard,using 4Mhz(24pF),20Mhz(33pF) and each time i power on the circuit,the led wont blink.For the setting with 4Mhz oscillator,the led will blink very fast and for the setting with 20Mhz,i had to touch or wiggle the capacitor to make the circuit works but still,it blinks way too fast.
i had fabricate annother pcb for 16f877a before.The connection for both circuit are the same and the program works like wonder on the pcb so i know there's nothing wrong with my circuit design and program.
-the circuit that i use on the breadboard and on the pcb are the same
-the delay subroutine are tuned for the oscillator freq
-the circuit only gone crazy if i assemble it on breadboard
