I love the MSP430, but being a 3.3V part, I did not want to mix voltages with the ADE7763 that runs on 5. PICs are cheap and ubiquitous with lots of free support at tools. I also happen to have a PIC programmer (EPIC) I purchased way back in 1999. So now I take a break and start writing the code for the PIC.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I decided that the easiest and simplest solution to the chip select problem is to use a small PIC processor to receive a serial data block with the address that the master processor wants to talk to.
