[PIC] capture pwm signal in pic microcontroller

[Ilia Gildin]

I am using the pic18f46k22 I read all the previous threads and that is what i manged to program and it wont work. (I need the program only in C)
P.S.
I read the user manual of the ICD3 and I know that it wont support printf function still if you know some magic trick will be WICKED OWSOM.
Sincerely Yours

you should be able to use printf() with a pic18 if you connect a PC to the USART
1. if the PC has a RS232 COM port via a MAX232
2. with a suitable cable, e.g. USB/TTL

you need to setup the USART with a baud rate etc to suit the terminal emulator on the PC

Thank you very much
but my main question remains can you show me a demo program that captures the pwm signal and shows its duty cycle and frequancy
