If you are only measuring the part of the pulse that is high, it appears
it
should be 0.5 us. Check if your scope has a X10 horizontal magnification
switch (my old Leader has a knob on the inside of the Variable Possition
control (horizontal position) that is labeled, "PULL X10 MAG".
Inadvertantly
activating that control can throw you off.

ROFL! That's EXACTLY what it was! :D

I just got the scope last week as my early xmas present.
I'm going to be giggling over this for the rest of the night...

By the way, goto takes 2 instruction cycles, so you may be getting a 0.5
us
high pulse, followed by a 1 us low pulse.

Yep. The on/off ratio was correct, but it was all
*stretched* by a factor of 10, which seemed
suspicious on a base-8 micro, but I *never* would
have spotted that. :)

Cheers mate! You made my day!

Randy,

Glad to be able to help. Thanks for letting me know.

Happy New Year.

Richard
