Hi guys

Just start using a PIC24FJ128GA610 here, I find the datasheet if not as good as pic18.

For example I need to setup 1ms timer interrupt for my time base. For pic18, I can find everything I need to in one pdf file, usually all in the timer and interrupt section.

But for a PIC24FJ128GA610, first I need to look at the timer, then looked at the interrupt, then I need to find another separate PDF file for interrupt, then I still can't find the register I need to enable timer interrupt. Then I have to try different register manually to find the bit I need to set.

Eg I need to try IEC0, IEC1, IEC2 etc... (luckily the timer1 is on IEC0, so I found it the first try), my point is I can't find say T1IE bits is in IEC0.

Did I do something wrong? How do you usually find the register you need setup a pic24FJ part??

Thanks guys
