Thanks for the helpful tips! I think that for this application, I
should do my initial debugging with the series resistors. My program
Your INITIAL debugging? Once you add the resistors,
you're pretty much stuck with 'em. Think about it;
how can you be sure that, in some dark corner of
your otherwise working code, some instruction was
only prevented from zapping the micro *because*
the resistors were there.
Once you take them out...
Build with, or build without, there is no ...
okay, enough with the Yoda impersonation.
will be using the SETF and CLRF statements, but still, protecting
myself from my stupid mistakes sounds prudent.
One other point to consider; do you think you
might expand the project at a later time? Add
some new functionality? Maybe you need more
i/o pins that, (drat!) are used up now.
I still don't think joining outputs is an
optimal solution. Just my opinion.
